In 2015, Darin planted several seeds from a seed pack from Totally Tomatoes, and one plant out of five produced fruits that were shaped like blunt hearts, and not beefsteaks, like [[Omar's Lebanese]] should be, but they tasted just like [[Omar's Lebanese]] tomatoes. Darin collected seeds and shared with Carolyn Male of Salem, New York (NY MA C), who sent the seeds to a grower in Wisconsin, "Dutch", who kindly grew 12 plants in 2016. All these plants produced large blunt hearts, averaging 1 lb., so it is most consistent with a stable mutation of [[Omar's Lebanese]]. Darin also provided seeds to Marsha Eisenberg, of Plantation, Florida, who offered it in her 2017 seed offer (only after the stable heart shape was confirmed by Dutch). * Darin Dotson decided to name this tomato “Dotson’s Lebanese Heart” on August 31, 2016, in honor of his late Mother. The previous working name used was "Omar's Lebanese Heart" until the heart shape was confirmed as stable by Dutch. regular midseason open-pollinated 2017-02-12T22:38:53Z 2457797.443669 Dotson’s Lebanese Heart
