- Det. plants with regular leaf foliage, blemish free and perfectly shaped red round fruits. High yields.
- The seeds offered in our 2014 seed catalog were raised by Heritage Tomato Seed , and we are so grateful to Steve McClaren for donating the seeds to us. 2018 growout of the seeds from Susan Anderson of Elgin, Texas (TX AN S) yielded pink globes on potato and regular leaf plants. Super tasty and quite early, a keeper, but wrong seed. Saved seeds from regular leaf plants.
