Talladega is going gangbusters in my garden right now! The vine is loaded with good sized fruit, still green at the moment. Looking forward to harvesting them in the next week or so! I'm growing it in a large container, and the vine is very healthy so far...In fact, all my container plants are doing much better than those planted in my raised beds. |

Talladega is slightly smaller than most of the fresh market TSWV resistant tomatoes. It has excellent resistance, good yields, and satisfactory flavor. Bella Rosa is better all a round, but this one works where TSWV is a problem. |
