If you could only grow two non F1 Hybrid varieties of tomatoes what would they be.

Lots of companies sell F1 Hybrid varieties now. They want you to come back every year for their seeds.
It has become more important now to save your own seeds.

Geranium Kiss for snacks；​

Cherokee Purple for salad, sandwich, soup or stir fry！​

It depends greatly on the climate I would grow them in.

For the most part I grow only my own personal family heirloom tomatoes. Not only for nostalgia but also because I’ve never had better ones. That said I do try a couple of new ones every year and some are better than others.

Last season grew one called Dwarf Champion. It was pretty good. Not much of a dwarf. Nearly as tall as me. Produced very well and quite disease resistant.

I’ve also grown Salvaterra Roma that was quite good.

Great looking tomatoes. I have grown a lot of different tomatoes and also like to try something different each year.
Last year my favourite was an ox heart from seeds I got from a guy in Woodbridge. They are the only tomatoes he has grown for many years. They became my favourite tomato.
