Mine is producing decently. The yield, in numbers not pounds, is somewhere between what you get from a regular tomato and a cherry. I would say it is producing about 3half as much as similarly-sized Amish Pink if that helps. It is a sweet tomato and dresses up a kabob nicely. I have to fight fungal diseases in my garden, and this one seems to have almost no resistance. I plan to grow it again, in a container and away from the others just because they dress up a kabob so nicely.

These tasted very good and I planted them after a rave from my local paper's garden expert, who recommended them. Unfortunately they are not very easy to grow and not at all prolific.
