- indet., regular leaf, 4-7 oz smooth red round-oblate fruits, it does not fit the original description because of the size of fruits. Certainly not a 'giant'! My seeds were likely a seed mixup. See Orenburg.

- 90-95 days, indet., regular leaf, 14-20 oz crimson red beefsteaks, frequently with ruffled shoulders and some hollowness in seed locules, although that may just be due to my particular growing conditions. Average-high productivity, average to good flavor.
