Moderately large vines for which caging or staking is helpful, very good production of small (1 to 1.5 inch diameter, 2 inch long) elongated, somewhat pear-shaped fruit that mature from pale green to light pink, thick skin, thick meaty walls. Others charitably describe them as good for sundried tomatoes and having good flavor, but I found this variety to be boringly tasteless. If I were to create a “bottom ten” list of varieties I’ve tried, this variety would be on the list. Unless you are looking for very bland pretty pink paste-like tomatoes, steer clear of this.
