@MrBig46 they look absolutely delicious. Which would say is the most productive?

Of the tomatoes whose seeds I obtained through Tomatoville, my favorite are the large hearts. This year I will be growing these hearts (+ Kukla's listed above).

Reinhard's Chocolate Heart - very little gel, now wondering if it would be one of the rare blacks that I would like?

I'm slowly thinking about which new heart I would grow in 2024. Does anyone have any interesting hearts?

I have a few really nice hearts I got from Marina at TV. Have you tried Mazarini? It was a very large pink heart, very productive. I also loved Rozoviy Flamingo heart, which was dark pink and very tasty. And Zolotye Kupola is a sweet yellow heart with a little pink blush at the center.
I also have a tangerine heart Samorodok, which I grew from Carolyn's last seed offer. Very solid, mild tasting for me, but my Mom ate most of them and she loved them.

It makes me so happy to see you growing and enjoying Alice. I wanted to grow that tomato to honor my grandmother (Alice) ever since she died but I couldn't find the seeds anywhere. After having it on my MMMM wish list for 5 years, Gary very kindly sent me ONE seed. I got the plant to grow and I sent the seeds I saved from that plant back through to the swap so that others would help revive this pretty tomato :) I'm so happy to see the tomato growing!

Alice grabbed my attention more than any other tomato pic on this thread.
It is the weak who are the glory of the strong.

Slankard's, Spadaro, Fidelio, Dagestanskiy, Ernesto and Rinaldo. I mentioned them in a post at T'ville (years ago) and Carolyn said they are all excellent. I've grown them at least once and I loved them all. I skipped a few years because life was happening out of my control, but now things have settled down and ready to go again. I'm scrambling to find seeds for these now, they are a must have.
