Arkansas Travelers


These are Arkansas Travelers. They make very good eatin' maters. They can be slipped unobtrusively into a lunch box. They are a nice color of pinkish-red. We ate one tonight along with one very large Japanese Black Trifele. I thought I had a picture of it, but I did not. The bottoms of those large tomatoes ripen sometimes before the tops. I think they may be composed of smaller tomato units fused together. Those darker tomatoes are certainly flavorful, but it is hard to tell when they are ripe. They never get as black as the pictures in the catalog. I'll have to take pictures tomorrow to show what I mean.
