| 6-10 oz round red fruit on indeterminate RL plants. Definitely the best producing brandywine variety. Taste was very good, but not as good as the regular brandywine. Produces far better in the heat though. Late for me. |

| This one also seemed over-rated to me. I found the flavor to be bland. Production was okay, but not outstanding. I had seen rave reviews on this one, and I was very disappointed that it did not live up to the hype, at least not in my garden it didn't. |
