They are piebald, heart-shaped or particularly robust.
And all very aromatic.

Provided that this is the case, the varieties of the 2022/2023 season also have other qualities.
Whether bright colors from red-yellow to amber, small wild tomatoes or particularly strong varieties that are resistant to brown and late blight - the range is large.
