Doing my veg seed order last night I realised what a mess catalogues are
when it comes to tomatoes, instead of grouping them in size etc. they
are all mixed together and it's not easy to find a "Proper" sized tomato
for sandwiches and salad use.
I don't want those little things which seem to predominate the lists.
It's surprising to see how the "Old Varieties" Alicante, etc. are still
around more than half a century after they were launched.

After trying many varietis over the years, this year I shall do a few
Alicanti, but mainly Tiny Tim, a cherry. It doesn't so much grow but
spread. From 6 plants last year I had in excess of 600 fruits. Perfect
to stick a handful in your pocket to munch all day.
