Pink Brandywine X Carbon
B.C KO T
- Indet., regular foliage that looks both potato and regular leaf, healthy plants produce large flattened and slightly ribbed bright red beefsteaks, 12-16 oz. Outstanding flavor and very good texture, smooth and meaty flesh, no core or shoulders.
- 2009 growout, F1 generation
- only 1 seedling out of 8 was regular leaf, as the crossing was partial. I discarded all PL seedlings, and grew out only the RL plant.
- 2010 growout, F2 generation
- Got 3 PL and 11 RL plants, all produced beefsteaks, red or pink colored.
- Zana (PL Pink, right plant) - very nice mild sweet/acidic balanced flavor, very meaty with few seed cavities and few seeds. Pink fruits, potato leaf.
- Lana (RL6) - sweet red meaty fruits, regular leaf.
- Jana (RL5) - earliest, regular leaf, pink fruits with very small seed cavities, balanced flavor.
- 2011 growout, F3 generation
