Best white of my experience, vigorous vines reach over 9 feet, potato leaves spanning longer than my forearm. giant pink blushed white beefsteaks with good shelf-life for the size. repeatedly pH tested to have very low acidity for a tomato with full flavor and excellent texture. One of my most loved tomatoes, it is related to a good number of my breeding lines. There are very very few seeds per fruit making commercial production difficult. later than most.
