B.C KO T

80 days, indet., regular leaf, relatively compact plants - however, I did not give them a good spot in the garden, which may have negatively affecting the plants vigor. Later maturing than the Black Brandywine, Regular Leaf that I got from a different seed source and grew side-by-side, again, this may be explained by a bad spot in the garden, I am not sure. The fruits were round and oblate, with 2-3 large seed cavities typical to large cherry or saladette tomatoes. Very nice flavor, but not as good as the true Black Brandywine. I am not sure at this point if this is a cross or a seed mixup.

History

• An off-type from Black Brandywine seeds purchased by Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T) from Pinetree Seeds in 2008. The plants produced black/purple fruits that were much smaller than the true Black Brandywine fruits should be.
