History
- Stabilized Kornesevsije cross from Mark Korney, Buffalo, who said:
- "Korney's Cross started out as a red very productive smaller tomato, between the size of Jaune Flammee and a tennis ball, usually shaped like an apple. Clusters were usually in fanned out bunches of 5 through 7 fruits (or more.)
- Starting around F5, they finally showed the black color of one of the parents. "
- Sand Hill Preservation Center 2010 catalog says "Color is deep purplish-red to almost black... Please be aware that there still may be some variability in size and shape on this variety."
- So there are at least two variants available - red and black fruited.
