While this variety proved to be free of problems, it had a mediocre yield and average flavor. |

This cultivars main claim to fame is its resistance to Spotted Wilt Virus. Only a few others are competitive in this area. The tomatoes are large round reds, very eye appealing. BUT they are hard crunchy, and pretty tasteless. I f you need a bullet proof plant, that cranks out pretty tomatoes in the southeast, it may fill the bill. Personally I like the taste of Amelia and Top Gun a lot better. |
