Tried this this past winter at our winter home in Mexico. I saw it was resistant to tomato yellow leaf curl virus in its description on Totally Tomatoes. Plants grew great and the fruit had decent flavor, a little sweet and fairly full tomato flavor. Plants were 8 feet tall and producing like crazy when we left in late April. A good one to try if you're having problems with TYLCV. All my plants were stunted with the virus the winter before.
