Cute dawg, and nice pics of the maters, but I hope this isn't costing Rajun Gardener an arm and a leg to have all these pictures!

Wow what a gorgeous dog. Oops this is a tomato discussion. Your tomatoes are beautiful too. I wish that I could dive into that tomato salad right now. It has been so long since I have had one. Everything looks so nice and healthy.

Don't worry, the pictures are hosted off-site.

Yes, I opened this thread before the Gallery section was up. It's more fitting there.

- Wolford Wonder
- Lucid Gem **
- Kellogg's Breakfast *
- Emerald Apple *
- Cherokee Purple
- Black Krim
- White Wonder
- unnamed pink (lower right)
- Orange Pepper (lower right)

Medium:
- Tomatoberry
- Brad's Atomic Grape
- Pink Tiger
- Blush Tiger
- Black Plum
- Indigo Rose
- unnamed pointy green (lower right)

Small:
- Sweet Aperitif (thanks Karen)
- Berry's Crazy Cherry
- Jasmin (here)

Aside from this I will try out in containers:

It was developed by Brad Gates to be productive in hot weather, as a preparation for the changing climate. Large tomatoes usually stop setting fruit in late July here. It gets above 35 C for days on end. Cherries do well though.
