If I could only have one tomato, Italian Heirloom would probably be it. First, it tastes wonderful fresh--great balance of sweet and tart, with full, complex flavor. Then, it's early, and bears heavily til frost, so you get a lot of tomatoes from each plant. And, it is also a great sauce tomato. Usually, I avoid multi-purpose varieties, figuring that they sort of work for lots of things and don't really excel at anything. But this tomato isn't like that. The skins come off so easily that you can usually peel them without even blanching. They melt into a creamy sauce with minimal cooking. And the flavor is terrific. Not as big as Oxheart, but much earlier and more prolific. 20 seeds
