History
- Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T) received seeds of Lil's Favorite from John Seewald of New Jersey in 2007, but it did not grow true to type, producing potato leaf plants. As potato leaf is a recessive trait, it can be a seed mixup. Unfortunately it is impossible to figure out which known potato leafed tomato variety this may be, as John has been growing hundreds of tomatoes for many years.
