History | * Discovered in 1994 by Darrell Merrell of … * Discovered in 1994 by Darrell Merrell of Tulsa, Oklahoma (OK ME D) in his patch of 12 [[1884]] tomato plants grown from seed purchased from The Tomato Seed Company (no longer in business). 3 plants were different and produced strawberry wedge-shaped fruits instead of expected beefsteaks, hence the name. Subsequent growouts showed that the off-type was stable. * It could have been that a few stray seed of a known heart-shaped variety that accidentally got mixed in, but it is impossible to prove it or dispute. * First offered in the Seed Savers 1997 Yearbook by Darrell Merrell of Tulsa, Oklahoma (OK ME D). rell Merrell of Tulsa, Oklahoma (OK ME D). |
