I'd like this to be a thread, about TWO, and only two, of your favorite tomatoes.

Desert Island...This is your absolute favorite tasting tomato. If you could only take one tomato to a desert island, this would be it.

Knock-Your-Socks-Off...This would perhaps be a tomato not known or circulated very well, that is near the top of your list for flavor.

Pleeeeeese, no third tomato. Another thread will be started for your favorites in the various category/types of tomatoes. Info is needed for the next swap.

I'll start off.

Desert Island...Aunt Ginny's Purple

K-Y-S-O...Urbanite ( I haven't seen any seeds for about a decade)

Stump of the World and Wildthyme Purple. This was harder because this place is so strange that i have multiple top 2s by location now. So i picked one of each.

Polish & Dester ! Of course I really don"t know How they would be when grown in a dessert Island climate

Aunt Ruby's German Green = desert island and a healthy robust plant.
Arkansas traveler= knock your socks off for that old fashioned taste.
