Bicij Lob/Latvian Heart and others

amideutch · August 29, 2007

I just picked my first Bytchiy Lob and Latvian Heart and some more Mazarini (both came in at 600grams apiece) and Maidens kiss. In the first picture from top to bottom; Mazarini, Latvian heart, Bicij Lob and Maidens Kiss.
The second is Mazarini-Latvian heart. Third is Bicij Lob and Maidens Kiss. Forth is BL cut open and fifth is LH cut open. Ami

No seeds!?

Yup, very few seeds in either. I thought Bicij Lob would have alot but when I opened it up, picture tells it all. I liked the taste of Bicij Lob. After I extracted what few seeds there were I cut off a slice to taste and ended up eating the whole thing.

Good stuff. Ami

Ami, I believe this is a German (probably, Reinhard's) way of writing Bytchiy Lob (Bull's Forehead) in German

Great pics indeed

Correct you are Andrey. Got the seed from Manfred. What do you think of those two 600 gram mazarini's?

Ami
How would you rate the taste of Latvian Heart?
I have seeds for it for next years garden.

Taddict, with all the crazy weather we had in July and the first 2 weeks of August I know none of my tomatoes reached their flavor potential (if you want to call it that). I would rate it above average from the tomatoes I have harvested so far. It was in one of the better spots in my yard. Ami

Ami, you know my passion for growing Mazarini

Your beauties look very much like mine this year. Good job!

I just have to admit this is probably a color game as I see all of your maters in red league. Mazarini is raspberry-pink and I yes, I know you've got them like this

Andrey, correct on the color. I believe the color rendition on my camera is not that great when taking pictures in my kitchen under halogen lights. Ami
