2010 Varieties
I had fun picking out this year's varieties. I've chosen some new one's I think you'll enjoy trying like Cherokee Purple, Earl of Edgecombe and Radiator Charlie's Mortgage Lifter among others. And, I've brought back a few old standby's that I didn't have last year: Black Krim, Stupice, and Sungold Cherry. And of course, those in-demand varieties that never go off the list are back, like Big Beef and Brandywine.
This year too, I've added another “early” variety, Zarnitza which should give Stupice a run for its money. And by request, I've added a “paste” tomato (plants only), Russian Big Roma. See all the varieties at grampastomatoes.com

Has anyone ever 'winterized' tomato plants?
If you mean saving the green ones until they ripen, yes. The trick is to wrap each green or partially ripe tomato individually in newspaper and store them in the basement or the coolest room in the house, but not in the fridge. Many will ripen, some will rot. But the ones that ripen are still better than store-bought ones.
