2015 Surprises and Mysteries

Yak54 · July 17, 2015

I have a "Mystery" tomato which is also a "surprise", that came from a pack of Riesentraube seeds purchased from a well known seed source. It is a cherry type, but that is the only similarity with Riesentraube. It is tied with my Sweet Ozark Orange plants for the tallest plant in my garden, but it's growth habit is much less dense and a lot taller than the 2 real Riesentraube plants planted a few feet away. My main problem is going to be if I really like the taste of these cherries, I have no idea how to duplicate them for next year.
