B.C KO T
- indet., regular wispy foliage, medium yield of pink large plums that are too juicy and seedy to be a paste tomato, nice salad or slicer tomato. Fruits easily detach from the stem when ripe, and could be knocked down accidentally. The flavor is very good and sweet. 6-10 oz. Some green/yellow shoulders when fruits are exposed to direct sun.
