Very nice Ami. Good to see the fruit coming in for you!
What's the story on the Rhoades Heirloom and Golden Cherokee?
They both look mighty good!

Lee, Rhoades Heirloom is a bicolor as you can see and this one tipped the scale at 430 grams. Good flavor and if you let it get a little over ripe it will have a melon taste to it. This being the first, I ate it a little under ripe and flavor was good.
The Golden Cherokee from Reinhard Kraft is a strange animal. After picking it at the yellow stage and let sit on the counter for a couple days it started getting a red blush to it looking more like a bicolor as you can see in the photo. Taste was also good and this was the first of the litter also. Here is what Reinhard had to say about Golden Cherokee. Ami

As I tried out Cherokee Green, some plants with yellow fruits appeared. I saved seeds and in the following years, they remained stable. So, I named them Golden Cherokee. Manfred Hahm got them from me, and he surely is the source of www.tomatenmitgeschmack.de.
