Thanks for your review. I have to say that my Principe Borghese is the new star tomato in my garden. It grew easily and beautifully from seed and even handled the (unintended) abuse of irregular watering. It showed much less disease pressure than Brandywine.

While PB isn't quite as sweet as Sungold, it is so versatile for me as I usually eat them in salads or "sun" dry them for pasta. I don't grow the pastes as I don't make sauce. Still looking for a more disease resistant beefsteak for BLTs.

I am thinking the "Sungold" I received from a plant swap may be something similar but different - maybe from the Sungold seed. To be fair, though, my container for the SG was not as large as it should have been.

Sungold performed really well here too. I also planted Stupice and Bloody Butcher - they both had loads of medium size tomatoes which were easy to dehydrate.

We did very well with the ones I grew this year...
Celebrity
Cherokee Purple
Ernesto
Rinaldo
Provenzano
Boxcar Willie, wasn't, turned out to be a small striped type
Cheerio
Snow White
Indigo Rose... new to me, classed as just another novelty by some but I loved it. Not being a big fan of sweet tomatoes this one impressed me, meaty, prolific, good flavor and looks great halved in a greek salad. I only had one plant which was given to me, I'll be growing half a dozen next year for sure.

Hi Pam! This year I grew:

Sun Gold: Have grown this for many years and it still performs as advertised, huge plant and huge production, very sweet, fruits start to split late in season, no disease, still going strong on 10/17/12.

Oregon Spring: Very early producer, very compact plant, has always been a winner for me, flavor is good, not great but it makes plenty of quality fruit.

Bloody Butcher: first time for me, did very poorly, plant barely grew, produced some small but tasty fruit early on and then just sat there, there are three very small fruits on the plant right now.

Moskovich: Have grown this many years also, I find it extremely tasty, plant gets huge, is slow to start producing but really comes on late. At least 10 medium sized fruits on the plant right now.

Sweet Baby Girl (cherry): Was advertised as a compact cherry, the plant is nowhere near as huge as Sungold, so I guess its true, but it still grew quite tall, just not very broad or bushy. Fruit is red, tasty, tender, not as sweet as Sungold. Meager production, wouldn't try it again, have grown other red cherries that produce like crazy, but the plants also get huge.

One thing that may be of interest to all of you PNW tomato lovers: I always plant my tomatoes in the garden from nursery starts on or around my birthday, April 30, and except for Bloody Butcher this year, they always grow and produce. This is in Edmonds .5 mi from the Sound, areas further out obviously will be more risky. I always chuckle at all the warnings "don't plant your tomatoes outside until we have some real heat!".

Sungold cannot be beat for sweet taste and productivity. I also liked Cherokee Purple for it's tastiness, but since I don't have a greenhouse, it didn't produce heavily. Stupice produced and produced, but the flavor wasn't as good as Cherokee Purple. I need a greenhouse for next year.

Black Cherry - late to start but still going and going with great taste.
This year i tried "Minsk", huge plant and huge (more that pound) yellow fruits with great taste and small amount of seeds.
Cosmonavt Volkov was good as well. September and start of October this year allowed me to enjoy ripe tomatoes from all plants. I did not get any blight, thinking because i mulched heavely with grass cuttings and watered with water that i collect when i rinse dishes from kefir and yogurt.

We planted several varieties this year as well (the tags kind of got buried under the foliage) - and sungold was the clear winner here too! As of Oct 21 the plants still look fine and we are still picking them, though ripening may be about over.

Black Cherry proved to be almost immune to disease in our high-disease pressure community garden, the same for Indian Stripe.

However, Black Cherry was also rather late for a cherry tomato, but still extremely productive.

We also grew Orange Minsk; it made a lot of rather large fruit for us, even though these were quite catfaced due to the bad weather in early summer this year. I think it's probably better suited to the Seattle area than other large yellow tomatoes; if anyone knows of any better large yellow variety let me know. It's not exactly early, but we had yellow tomatoes in August at least.

Black Krim did great for me this year, must have had about 25 or 30 big great tasting beauties from only one bush. BTW I live in the Portland area.

I did 9 varieties this year. These are my results.

Amish Paste: Late ripening, fought early blight with it more than any other tomato.

Principe Borghese: Best producing, most disease resistant, a little late to get started, but I was still getting tomatoes up till a week ago. Great dried, but I was not head-over-heels for the flavor of it fresh.

Supersweet 100: Second only to Sungold. Very little trouble.

Sweet Million: Larger cherry size, thicker skin, and not as sweet as SS100.

Pruden's Purple: Few ripe tomatoes, but very large. Fought early blight for a long time with it and BER.

"not" Glacier: Typical cross, some plants looked like Glacier, but most had mini-beefsteak tomatoes. Taste was pretty good and disease resistant.

Sungold: Disease resistant, sweet, early and care free. Prob. the best tomato plants I had this year.

Early Girl: Did it's job--Early, disease resistant, with tons of tomatoes. Just above store-bought flavor for me though.

Sweet Pea Current: Surprisingly late for a current. Did not do well in a hanging basket as was advertised. Not a sweet tomato. They tasted like a full-sized tomato in a current size. I did have to treat and protect from early blight.
