Paul's Pink Pride update.

After several years of searching, Retiree sent me seeds. While this year is not the best in my area, there is hope yet there will be a few tomatoes to harvest. There is one tomato on one of the two plants. Both plants are approaching the seven foot mark with lots of blossoms. Heat and humidity has caused disease and lack of fertilization.

I hope it turns out to be just like you remember. Good looking tomato.

I had problems with hot humid weather also and fortunately had a bit of a break from it

for a while. Can't do much about what nature gives us unfortunately.

What's the story on this variety? Will you give us more info, please?

About ten years ago when growing tomatoes with names of the family I received seeds from a Tomatovillian with the variety name Paul's Pink Pride. This was a very good tomato, large, healthy, very sweet and prolific. I was sure I had saved seeds but misplaced them somehow. Over the years I had tried to find this variety again to no avail.

In my latest request, Tomatoville member Retiree saw the plea and sent seeds.
