History

  • From Altai mountains of Siberia, Russia.
  • First introduced commercially by Seeds Trust/High Altitude Gardens .
  • This is another tomato that different people and seed vendors have been describing differently. Seeds Trust/High Altitude Gardens originally described it as large hearts with light-red skin. Tanager described it as a medium (4-6 oz) red hearts. Seed Savers Exchange members describe it as medium to large pink heart, and some do not specify the fruit color.
  • First introduced in the Seed Savers 1995 Yearbook by AK BO I, who bought the seeds from Seeds Trust/High Altitude Gardens , and by Calvin E. Wait, Unique Seed Service, Ethel, Missouri (MO WA C), who got the seeds from Carolyn Male of Latham, New York.
