A "new" sweet Russian heart - Bychiy Glaz
I received the seed from my Mom who lives in Russia and she purchased it from the local seed vendor. This tomato is called 'Bychiy Glaz', which means 'Bull's Eye" - it is very crimson red color, unusually shaped, medium size hearts with excellent sweet taste. It is a winner in our 2008 'bland' year.
The salad I made from it was so sweet that I simply could not add enough salt to make it 'salty'. So for those who like sweet medium sized red hearts of Russian origin - I'd certainly recommend this one! No, I do not have enough seeds to offer it . At least not yet. Look at the sliced fruits - each only has 10 seeds max, if at all! 2008-09-14 035.JPG 2008-09-14 037.JPG
