Overall Taste Yield Ease	Richmond, Georgia, United States Frost Free Season: 183 - 203 days Soil Texture: Sand Garden Size: Large - More than 1,600 square feet (40' x 40') Sun Exposure: More than 8 hours per day
A hybrid designed to emulate a heirloom beefsteak. Medium large convoluted fruits tha are competive in aa ugly tomato contest. It is susceptive to Fusarium but the plant is very vigorous and produces an initial crop. Productive, but the fruits are so gnarly, they have few uses. It is one I will not recommend to anyone.
