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.]

    Oh yes, it’s a delight being able to convert previous tomato-haters and show them the light.

    My first year in my house, one of the varieties I grew were Sungolds. My next door neighbor’s son proclaimed he hated tomatoes, and I persuaded him to give a little one a try, and I’ll never forget the shock with which he said “…it’s sweet‽” And then asked for another!
