Tomato Plants

We've got some 80 odd tomato plants available.  They were all started from heirloom seeds.  We're asking for a $2 donation per plant.  Please let us know if you'd like any and how many.

Here's what we have:
Rei Dos ~ Well-flavored fruits grow to one-half pound, perfect for slicing and sandwiches. Uniform, flattened globes are blemish-free and very resistant to cracking. Relatively compact plants yielded abundantly for a couple of months in our trials. Just a really nice, all-purpose red tomato.
St. Pierre ~ The tender fruits have a full, rich tomato flavor and are large in size, great for canning or fresh eating. They are deep red and excellent producers, even in bad conditions.
Royal Chico ~ Very productive Roma type; vigorous determinate plant yields bright red pear-shaped fruit that are uniform and perfect for paste or canning. Very resistant to disease; perfect for the home garden or market. 
Rutgers ~ Good for canning; also good fresh; large red 8-oz. globes. Good yields and flavor on large vines.
Sub-Arctic ~ One of the very earliest tomatoes; the compact plants produce lots of 2-oz red fruit.
Rev. Morrow's Longkeepers ~ A tall, determinate variety with 6-10 oz, globular fruit that ripens orange-red with pinkish flesh. The amazing thing about this tomato is its keeping qualities; these have kept until January! Selected for longest storage time possible
Yellow Pear ~ Very sweet, 1 1/2” yellow, pear-shaped fruit have a mild flavor, and are great for fresh eating or for making tomato preserves. Very productive plants are easy to grow.
