History

  • An accidental cross of Odessa with unknown indeterminate variety, which appeared in Tatiana Kouchnareva's garden in 2006. It either originated from Seeds Trust that was selling crossed seeds, or from Dan McMurray's garden in 2005.
  • It is not stable yet.
  • As this is likely an offspring of the variety Odessa, Tatiana named this cross Arkadia, after the jewel of Odessa's Nightlife and beach activities in the summer months in the Ukraine (see [1] and [2]).
  • (Please note that there is no evidence that proves that Odessa variety originated from the Ukraine.)
