Default Ingegnoli Gigante Liscio

I found "Ingegnoli Gigante Liscio" on the Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds site, and ordered some.

I think the Italian seed firm, Fratelli Ingegnoli, first developed it in 1920.

". . . ottenuta nel lontano 1920 da un incrocio tra le varietà americane PONDEROSA e ST. LOUIS; sottoposta ad un continuo miglioramento genetico . . ."

Which I guess indicates that they crossed Ponderosa and St. Louis (I've never heard of "St. Louis") and stabilized it.

Link here: http://www.ingegnoli.it/index.asp and go to "Sementi da Orto" for "other seeds" and then "Pomidori" for tomatoes.

Has anybody here tried it? Comments?

Thanks in advance.
