| I personally did not care for the taste of this tomato. I generally like a good balanced or slighty sweet tomato. Due to the heavy yield and how easily it grew, I\'m giving it 3 stars. |

| Excellent producer of medium dark pink tomatos. Not as robust in taste as red varieties, but produced weeks earlier than the other tomatoes I planted. |

| I figured I try this variety as a competitor to my other early tomato Stupice. I lost all three of my stupice due to cut worms for the first time ever but I was able to save the Early Wonder. I had one plant protected in the ground and one pottted plant set out the last week of April. We had a very wet spring and summer here in Connecticut but I was very impressed with Early Wonder's production and flavor in adverse conditions. It has a beautiful pink color that starts off as light pink and ripens to a deeper shade. Fruit size ranged from 4-7 ounces and the flavor was sweet and juicy. It is a bit later than stupice by a few weeks which I would start picking the end of June, but they are larger with much less cracking. It's a winner both as an early or mid season variety. |

| this was a 5 star performer in the 2006 season - sowed seed in mid May, set out transplants June 8th, harvested my 1st tomato July 30th. I have grown them for 4 or 5 years. They are a wonderful early tomato. They are small but the flavor is big. The tomatoes are pink and I took a picture some time in August that looks like it should be in a seed catalogue... loaded with tomatoes. The flavor is a bit sweet with enough acid to not be flat. |
