Though that Black Pineapple I’m pretty sure must have crossed with something else, it’s normally green with splashes of red, not orange with red.

The tomatoes are the Golden King of Siberia, the Black Pineapple (or Ananas Noire), the Berkeley Tie Dye Green, the Sart Roloise, the Dr. Wyche’s Yellow, the German Pink, and the Black Beauty.]
I had no idea that there are so many different types of tomatoes, that’s so cool! do you have a favourite one?
Oh man, this is barely scratching the tip of the tomato world! I’ve personally grown something like 45ish varieties, and I know there’s hundreds and hundreds more that have been developed around the world.
My fiance told me I had to scale it back this year, so these seven are of ten of my favorite varieties that I limited myself to (plus whatever volunteers popped up). My actual favorite of those ten isn’t in this picture, but of these, I love the Golden King of Siberia. It’s incredibly sweet, a good slicer, and an early producer.
