This is one of my favorite tomatoes. It is an oxheart shape type with outstanding flavor that can be used both as a slicing or sauce tomato. I prefer to use it as a slicer because of it's wonderful sweet and juicy taste. It ranges between six ounces to a pound with most of it's tomatoes averaging around nine to ten ounces. The plant is quite bushy but doesn't get out of control. The flavor continued to be excellent even late in the season. The only drawback is that it is a difficult seed to find other than Comstock Ferre Company and the supply may be limited. This one is a winner in my garden
