Roughwood Golden Plum
I'm starting a new thread so as not to hijack a thread where this was brought up -- what should Roughwood Golden Plum look like ?
I commented that it is a potato leaf dwarf. I attached 3 pics that I took late in the season last year. Granted they don't look very dwarf by that time. But earlier in the season they were standing quite upright, very much like the rest of my dwarves. The leaf form seems to be not as puckered rugose as many dwarves, but it was not full and soft like a normal leafed plant. I don't know quite how to describe it. I just a few days ago potted up my plantings of it for this year and the tiny leaves are definately Potato leafed. The plants I grew last year were from seed purchased from Sandhill and I grew close to 100 plants and all looked the same. They were quite productive and made the nicest orange tomato juice. Are they right for the type ? I don't know but they are good whatever they are. Carol |
