Variations in Cherokee Purple and Indian Stripe
I was looking at some pictures of Cherokee Purple, since its been raining all day again and it is really amazing how different the same tomato looks in different places.For instance, on Tatiana's site Klaus-Peter Schurz Cherokee Purple looks identical to what mine looks like in the first pic.
http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/w...b=General_Info So then I did a image search and the color of these tomatoes are all over the place, look at a hundred or so pics https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cherokee+p...ffhp&ia=images I then went to Tatiana's site to search Indian Stripe just to see if Klaus-Peter Schurz Indian Stripe looked different than the other Indian Stripes.And what I saw was maybe the most beautiful tomato I have ever seen. http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/wiki/Indian_Stripe The striping on the Indian Stripe is just beautiful.Just when I thought I had everything figured out I looked down a few more pics and Ted Maiden's Indian Stripe looks just like my Cherokee Purple In summary I guess its the soil that makes these Cherokees look different.Some of mine even look like green when ripe with a pink blush.This is more of an observation than anything on a Very rainy Saturday.
