What is your absolute favorite tomato, and why?
And can you recommend a hight yielding tomato that gets no higher than 2meters?

My favourite is Suncherry Premium, a red cherry tomato which has a good yield and grows to about 2 metres. I stop the growth at that point and grow mine in a greenhouse. I no longer bother with any other variety as I haven't the time.
My absolute favourite is the heirloom Cherokee Purple. Sweet, medium to large fruit, good yield. I wouldn't use it for a tomato sauce unless you are going for sweet.
Gardeners delight used to be my favourite, but this year I planted Sungold as well. This is fruiting wildly and is so sweet, so I will drop Gardeners delight next year, I think.
really agree about sungold, have also been pleasantly surprised by gigantomo from T and M, really great size beef tomato and a lovely flavour, i also really like black cherry
for a high yield and very small size i would recommend the tumbling type tomatoes!
Hi sweet aperitif has done amazingly for us in the GH this year. Ailsa Craig did well also but flavour was very disappointing. Any one recommend any medium size tomato varieties??
