name change, Momotaro is now called Tough Boy

casino · February 19, 2011

I just received my Jung Seeds & Plants catalogue today and on page 5 there is a tomato called "Tough Boy Hybrid Tomato" (the description reads) this tomato is called momotaro in Japan where gardeners prefer their tomatoes pink and sweet.

Why the name change? Why cant Jung seeds just say momotaro one of the most popular tomatoes in Japan. Now we have another name to keep track of. Its hard enough to keep track of all the "brandywine's" poping up everywhere and here comes more name changes.
