Tomatoes are juicy and nutritious. They taste great and are relatively easy to grow. Climate is the major factor in growing tomato plants. There are many different tomato varieties that could be grown in varied conditions (except extreme cold temperature), which include:
Beefsteak tomatoes are among the most common type of tomatoes. They are large in size and are used in sandwiches.
Heirlooms like the red Brandywine, Caspian Pink, Constoluto Genevese, Zapotec, and the Hillbilly.
Red tomatoes like the Arkansas Traveler, Carmello, Celebrity, Early Girl, and Stupice
Colored tomatoes like the Purple Cherokee, Garden Peach, Jaune Flamee, Lemon Boy, and Pail Robeson
Plum or Roma tomatoes like Amish Paste, Margherita, and Speckled Roman are small and elongated. These are the tomato varieties normally grown for the purpose of canning.
Cherry and Grape tomatoes like the Sungold, Isis Candy, Matt’s Wild Cherry, Super Sweet 100, and the Cupid. These are easy to grow (even in containers) because they mature fast. They are bite-sized and are great snacks for kids.
Other tomato varieties include the Main Crop, which are widely grown in home gardens and can produce fruit even during mid-season.
Tomatoes are high in Vitamins A and C and lycopene, which give the fruit its red color. Lycopene is known to be good for the prevention of cancer. While there may be a lot of these fruits that you can buy from the supermarket, there’s nothing quite more delightful than those that come from your own garden.
