THIS IS EASILY, NO QUESTION,ABSOLUETLY THE BEST tomato I've ever grown. I never buy plants until well into June when all that's left are a few scraggly marked down things, and planted one of these last year. Well, I was back on MAY 1 ( a first for me; way before planting season) to buy only Piriforms - will never plant anything else if I can help it- and the grower didn't plant them again- because I didn't give him feedback. So I'm singing their praises here: 1. THE BEST TASTING TOMATO EVER. And -I'm a chef. And- I belong to 2 garden clubs. And- tomatoes are the only veg I grow. 2. Sets fruit earlier than the earliest, tasteless "Earlygirls". 3. Amazingly vigorous, large, disease-resistant. No fungus! (Unlike Brandywine) 4. Bears abundantly (unlike Brandywine) and continuously until frost. 5. All WONDERFUL taste and meat, no 'snot' 6. And they are BEAUTIFUL..They look like drapery. I did a still life painting of them...and sold it for big bucks. If you want to see what they look like, I'll e-mail it to you. -Ellen
