Makes a great addition to a basket of cherry tomatoes. I like it a lot. I would love it if DTM were not so long or if I lived farther south. The listed DTM does not show the actual production. A few tomatoes appear at listed DTM, but real production occurs here in Ohio just as frost arrives.

I thought these were very pretty and very tasty. They were certainly productive; large numbers of cherry tomatoes on a large, rangy vine. Unfortunately they lose marks for being splitters, even when other varieties were holding it together. We dried a lot of them, and they dried well.

This was my heaviest bearing tomato variety this year, and boy did it bear. It was the latest of all of my varieties to begin bearing but then they came in droves. I found that these almost never made it home because they were all eaten in the garden during harvesting! They are very low acid with a very mild flavor. At first, I found them unsatisfying but then... I just plain got addicted!

These tomatoes are just amazingly good! No problem producing in heat - I am in the south. They are so refreshing and sweet and I appreciate the skins being thin rather than thick and hard to bite into.

This was a disappointing variety for me. The taste was light and fruity - very nice although the skin was somewhat tough. The plants were of only modest size and productivity. It had extreme problems with blossom end rot - far worse than the 6 or so other tomato varieties grown in 2006. Nearly all the fruit was lost.

Novel color! Produced lots of fruits on a vigorous plant, but had some problems with disease in a year when even the commercial growers were having problems. The flavor was rather mild; my son thought it was a plus, saying the fruits were "refreshing".
