Submitted by Danny "I grew these in small pots for tables at a wedding dinner because of the name "Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow," and they were easy to grow and packed with flowers. A few leftovers I planted at home and now I wouldn't be without this variety. I love the turning of the flower colors." |

Submitted by dontneedanickname from Michigan "I ordered a packet of this seed years ago, and it has grown back beautifully and faithfully - and BIGGER - every year since. I host scores of butterflies and watch lots of caterpillars grow on the many huge plants I have from just one packet of seed. The plants are so prolific that there are plenty of leaves for the caterpillars to munch, and it never looks "munched on." If you want to add plants that enhance your yard and add to the butterfly population, this is an excellent choice -- and this is the only place I've seen this variety." |

Submitted by BurpeeExpert from Doylestown, PA "The huge blooms are larger than any other French marigold out there. The first flower bed I saw of these were planted in a damp, cool, rainy area and they still were a sea of pure color, there were so many blooms on each plant. The tight petals and the striking combination of orange and golden yellow really stands out." |

Submitted by BurpeeExpert from Doylestown, PA "By far the sweetest cherry tomato I’ve ever tasted! These tiny little fruits really give off an aftertaste of honey – its as if you dipped the fruits in honey before eating them. My plants had incredible yields all summer long." |

Submitted by starrlight from Baton Rouge, LA "This plant is great, I accidentally broke one in to several pieces and stuck them in water to enjoy them while I could - Ended up with many plants! They grow approximately 3' tall and 3' wide and tolerate just about any sun and/or soil condition. They work as beautiful filler or backdrop for landscape beds!" |

 See more: Tomato Tomande |
Submitted by Montana from Montana "I tried Tomande last year (2007) for the first time and was amazed with both vigor and production. I grew 12 varieties (mostly heirloom) in two gardens and the Tomande produced 2-3 times as many tomatoes as any of the others. One garden got severely hailed on and the Tomande was the most vigorous in coming back from the hail. I canned 150 quarts of tomatoes and 60 quarts of salsa and I could fill a 5 gallon bucket at each tomande plant and it didn't look like I'd picked any. Super plant, please keep it available.

 See more: Tomato Sun Gold Hybrid (Cherry) |
Submitted by Marmoxmag from Scarborough, ME "These tomatoes were the surprise hit of my garden in 2007. I had never tried this variety before, usually planting Burpee classic red cherry tomatoes. First, these are DELICIOUS fresh off the plant and stay fresh for a long time in the fridge. Secondly, I couldn't *believe* the yield. I truly must have had 100 tomatoes on each plant, easy. I couldn't keep up with them, and invited friends and neighbors over to enjoy the harvest. Finally, unlike the yellow heirloom pear tomatoes, these don't split when they're ripe. The pears split open the second they're ready meaning 100% blemished fruit, but these are "ripe" at a variety of shades and never split open. I'm planting again this year! :) |

Submitted by MrGreenGenes from Central Missouri "Wouldn't plant any other variety. These are sugar sweet even after being frozen for 6-8 months. When the vines start producing you will need to pick them twice per week. I plant two rows about a foot apart and trelless them on 4' wire fabric fence. Makes picking very easy and keeps the vines healthy. Use the "booster" Burpee sells for peas/beans or buy bean "innoculant" from a farm supply store." |

Submitted by Valdeth from Xenia, Ohio "I bought these plants as seedlings from a local garden center last year. The fruit came on very early (long before my Big Boy Hybrids) and lasted all the way PAST frost. Each day I would pick 5-10 tomatoes! The flavor was a tiny bit acidic, but still excellent, despite their "roma" size, I even cut them up for sandwiches. I'd grow them again in a second." |
