ID DE M

Very ribbed appearance that may surprise people. Large (about the size of a 1lb non-stuffing tomato). I believe they were pink. Fairly productive, but late. The first one I tried didn't have much flavor, but future ones tasted better (there was a tiny bit of bitter in the taste, I think, but it wasn't unpleasant). Looks just like Tlacalula.

Seed source:

Tormato of tomatoville.com (I received them in early 2016; they were marked 2014)

Year grown: 2016

Location: New Plymouth, Idaho
