Olive Grape Tomato

Hi GRANDPA BOB, I love those tomatos and they do look like olives, you know I love cherry tomatos and I can eat the whole packet while I am mylotting, but you have the fresh home grown so its bound to taste a lot better. Tamara

I have never heard of those types of tomatoes before. I never heard of the grape tomato either. WE are growing beef steak tomatoes this year along with some Big Boys. Those are our favorite ones. I have heard of cherry tomatoes though and they are very small and good for salads also.

My mom always liked Roma because it did not get so "liquid" in sandwiches. I have fond memories of Beefsteak and Better Boy tomatoes. I love any kind of fresh ripe tomato. I find Early Girl and Celebrity to be very good and pretty early in the garden.

I've never heard of Olive Grape Tomatoes will have to check into it. Afraid I don't have anything but a couple herbs growing in pots on the front porch this year and their not doing too well... I'm hoping to pick up a couple tomatoe plants this weekend but still don't know where on earth I'll put them - this yard get next to no direct sun (first hour of the morning about it). Cherry toms my favorite and beefstakes for slicing or canning although I did have a few Roma last year and they canned very nicely.

A couple of years my son grew some tomatoes, different types. It don't matter to me what kind they are, they are all great but for a hamburger or sandwich I like the really big ones, one slice will fit.

I'm supposed to have some Early Girl tomatoes coming up but even though I planted them more than 3 weeks ago I haven't seen any sign of them. Too bad, I'll try planting some more when I feel a bit better because I'm just now beginning to enjoy tomatoes in my salads. I've never liked them and suddenly--I kind of do!

I am not growing any, but my daughter loves those little grape tomatoes. She begs for them whenever we go to the grocery store. I get strange looks when my 2 year old is begging for tomatoes.
