I did a careful search through SSE tomato listings
and noted that most people who rave over black tomatoes live up north. I
think that the darker color warms the fruit enough to get some enzyme action
that you'd normally only find in southern grown fruit. I'm curious about
the opinions of others on this. I have not been particularly impressed by
black tomatoes myself, and they tend to sunburn here. If you want, Sam, I
can send you all my old seeds. Can't guarantee that any particular variety
will grow, but some certainly will. I have:
Black Plum
Black Tomato
Black Cherry (that was pretty nice)
Cherokee Purple (the potato leaf one does pretty
well for me, and it is good)
Prudens Purple (only good when dead
ripe)
probably some others when I dig through my seeds in
March. Donna Z6 TN
