Although these plants were supposed to be only a couple of feet tall, mine grew to 4-5 feet ! Very productive, good flavor.

"these extremely compact, determinate plants tend to creep rather than grow tall and would be perfect in a hanging basket or patio container. "
2016: growing in HH; definitely was NOT "extremely compact" for me, growing to at least 6' tall inside the hoop house. Very productive and early (started to ripen in July), but the tomatoes tended to have hard yellow shoulders. Tomatoes were about the size of a golf ball.

Weight of the 2 tomatoes is 1 pound 7-3/4 ounces, an average of a

" dwarf, compact, determinate plants that were listed in the McFayden Seed Catalog as a "self-pruning," and needing no staking. Plants produce huge amounts of 2-3", red, round tomatoes that have exceptional, rich, complex and slightly acidic flavors. This is a great canning and salad tomato. Produces well in cooler damp weather, greenhouse or containers."
Grew in 2015 inside hoophouse; produced well but had hard spots near shoulders, not the best flavor.

Not impressed; for some reason dropped a LOT of large tomatoes while green.

Despite the name, this was the only variety (so far) that I have ever had a problem with blossom end rot in, since growing my tomatoes in an unheated high tunnel. Even slightly later, when there was no sign of rot on the exterior of the tomatoes, there were spots of rot in the seed cavity when they were cut open. Very disappointing because the tomatoes are otherwise beautiful, flavorful and juicy.

This is typical of the tomatoes that I harvested from Jamestown i

2022: Growing from a volunteer seedling in the HH; it was surprisingly productive, even with the late start - and one of our favorites in terms of flavor.
Best flavor when it is light pink, even when it has hints of green.
2023: Growing again from my own saved seeds, very productive and quite tall for a determinate variety. The tomatoes have excellent flavor!

70 dtm; "short, compact and bushy, determinate plants that yield large trusses of red, elongated, sausage-shaped, paste tomatoes. Milano Plum tomatoes have firm flesh with very delicious sweet flavor. A perfect sauce tomato."
2022: Tomatofest
Grew well for me in 2022 but didn't like them as well as some other varieties of paste tomatoes; might give them another try in a year or two.

60 dtm; " sugary-acid balanced fruits that resist cracking. Smooth, bright red fruits are solid, oval, and weigh about 1/2 ounce each. Unlike other determinate grape varieties, compact plants are strong, have good leaf cover preventing sun damage and require minimal support."
2022: Territorial

Note: growing to at least 4' tall in the GH (in ground) and definitely needs support!
