Now I can't wait to try 'Prudens Purple,' especially if you think they taste better than 'Cherokee Purple.'

I've noticed that different heirlooms perform better in different climates. Meanwhile, my tomatoes aren't getting off to a great start with this rainy, cold weather, but here's hoping for the best. Cheers, and thanks for stopping by. Teresa

Last year due to a severe ankle injury I wasn't able to get to my local farmer's market early enough in the season and everyone was sold out of Prudens Purple plants. I searched high and low for weeks. Finally settled on Cherokee Purple. I was extremely disappointed in both the texture and flavor (no real tomato flavor and I found the texture to be mealy compared to Prudens Purple). Last summer was the first year I went without my daily Prudens for lunch.

This year, I made it a high priority to get to the market super early each Saturday morning – I got the first Prudens Purple plants of the season – YIPPIE!!!!

I'm looking forward to my 2 sandwich's a day, a thick slice of Prudens on homemade bread topped with a slice of goat's cheese (baked in the toaster oven until the cheese melts)… the tomatoes haven't even formed yet and I'm already enjoying them : )

I have planted hairlooms but it's impossible for me now to identify those. Now I need to wait and explore. I should try your reusable tag next time.

Looking forward to see the photographs of your tomato garden.
