Favorite dwarf tomato varieties?

[habitat-gardener]

I've grown one or two dwarf varieties a year for several years without really appreciating the smaller size of the plants, because they were grown among indeterminates. But this year I'm planning to grow a whole bed of dwarf varieties.

What are your favorite dwarf varieties? I'm looking for sandwich tomatoes that have intense balanced flavors with a bias toward sweeter tomatoes, in a variety of colors.

Loxton Ladd is my favorite orange one, and Numbat is a wonderful GWR with stripes. Summertime Gold is my yellow of choice. And Rosella Purple is equally fantastic. My first judgment priority is flavor, but they've got to produce, and do it early to midseason for me to actually get to taste them.

Fred's Tie Dye was my fav last year

[Labradors]

My favourites are Mr. Snow, Wherokowhai and Rosella Purple.

The yellows taste great. Sweet Sue, Sum. Gold, Summer Sunrise. Firebird Sweet is big and tasty. Loxton Lad is an orange/yellow for me and my favorite.
Grown both in ground and in containers. I've grown others but these are my favorites.

Boronia is a favourite black I've grown more than once now. I still remember finding the 1st ripe one last year, hidden in the dense foliage. Very ripe and very sweet.

I grew the new big dwarf and big brandy we liked the bid brandy better but still both good the more they ripened them sweeter they became I’m doing the Tasmanian chocolate this year

Emerald Giant is my favorite large dwarf I've tried thus far. Rosella Purple is also very good. I've heard many glowing recommendations on Mr. Snow, so I am trying that one in 2021. Dwarf Metallica was another one I liked a lot.

[FarmerShawn]

Oh, yeah. I've also really liked Wild Fred and Perth Pride quite a lot.

Nice to see Mr. Snow and Wherokowhai listed as they are on my list to try this year... I have 7 buckets already and we are talking about getting more...

It's hard to go wrong with the dwarf project varieties. Jade beauty is the sweetest gwr I have grown. I like coastal pride orange.

Mano is my favorite red dwarf, a non project variety.

I haven't grown a lot of dwarf tomatoes but I like Husky Cherry Red F1. It's early, prolific, and fun. It produces all season, and is a dwarf indeterminate.

Sandwich-wise, Husky Red F1 (not the cherry) is my current favorite dwarf (but the flavor is pretty normal). Firm texture.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Sweet Scarlet Dwarf. It has been a sweet, productive tomato for me. He's what Craig LeHoullier has to say: Sweet Scarlet Dwarf - Of all of the traditional red colored tomatoes in our project, this stands out - in fact, of all of our releases, not matter what the color, it really does fit in with the very best. My only quibble is that it can be variable season to season, garden to garden, with respect to fruit set/yield, as well as susceptibility to disease. It is a clear favorite of mine, with an intense, complex, rich flavor that delivers a delightful tart kick.

Sweet Scarlet Dwarf, Dwarf Blazing Beauty, and Dwarf Sweet Sue are my favorites, and grown most years.

Dwarf Orange Cream it's on my grow list every year

New big dwarf for me.

[mama_lor]

New Big Dwarf is still a top dwarf even if it's ancient. Big, pink fruit with no shoulder cracks.

[Growing Coastal]

Adelaide Festival is a good producer with fruit of nicely balanced flavour that I've grown a few times, now.
It did well even in last summer's cooler weather, here.

[root_grow]

I've only grown a handful of the dwarfs, but Blazing Beauty stood out both for beauty and flavor, really intense, delicious and productive. I also loved Pink Passion, they gave me oodles of tasty sweet hearts when the other sandwich-size tomatoes were just starting to trickle in.

A couple of years ago I obtained seeds for 21 Dwarf Project Tomatoes. I had some other backyard project work going on and had too many other tomatoes I thought I had to grow instead so with a lack of space, growing the dwarfs just never happened.

Since I am moving to raised beds this year and only growing a few large tomato plants I am going to dedicate a 4x12 raised bed for dwarf tomatoes.

Here are the seeds I have:

1 Adelaide Festival
2 Boronia Dwarf
3 BrandyFred
4 Dwarf Crimson Sockeye
5 Dwarf Emerald Giant
6 Dwarf Firebird Sweet
7 Dwarf Mr. Snow
8 Dwarf Orange Cream
9 Dwarf Pink Passion
10 Dwarf Russian Swirl
11 Dwarf Wild Fred
12 Dwarf Wild Spudleaf
13 Iditarod Red
14 Lucky Swirl
15 Rosella Purple
16 Sleeping Lady
17 Sweet Scarlet Dwarf
18 Tasmanian Chocolate
19 TastyWine
20 Willa's Caribou Rose
21 Yukon Quest

I do not know how many dwarfs I can get in a 4x12 bed but my guess it will not be 21.

So those who have experience with the dwarfs how much space do I need for each plant?
If I have to make cuts to the list which would be the top 10 to keep and the bottom 5-10 to cut?

I am in southern Indiana.

Thanks,

DER
