I would love to know the best varieties of tomatoes to plant, one regular and one cherry. I'm in zone 7: http://www.burpee.com/ancillary/zonefinder.do?KickerID=1116&KICKER&ch=SEM.

In the larger slicing tomato camp I will also remain devoted to 'Black Krim', 'Purple Cherokee', 'Zapotec Pink Pleated', 'Purple Calabash'. Oh there are really so many good varieties.

Ohhhh Mortgage Lifter. An AMAZING tomato, definitely one of my faves, too!

My new favorite (from last year) is mortgage lifter. I've never grown a more prolific full-sized tomato.

Black Cherry is also pretty and tasty.

We're in zone 5 - but our hottest selling cherry is a husky red. People come to us just for those. No real winner on regular tomatoes though - celebrity does well but I think the others are probably pretty close in sales too.
