We’ve added some determinate tomato varieties this year. Determinate varieties typically stop growing after they reach two or three feet in height. They also tend to produce most of their fruit at about the same time. Indeterminate varieties, on the other hand, tend to grow and produce fruit throughout the season. All of the tomatoes listed here are indeterminate unless specifically marked otherwise.
