By their nature, tomatoes are vining plants that tend to ripen fruit over an extended period of time. That is called "indeterminate." These are traditionally staked or supported.
Determinate tomatoes, on the other hand, tend to be bushier and to ripen their crop all at one time. This is a feature that canners and freezers might note. They are also better for container growing.
