Looking for info on "Rose"

seeker · August 7, 2007

This spring, I bought a plant that was supposed to be a local (well, New Holland, PA) heirloom. It has grown into a huge, incredibly healthy, potato-leaf plant producing large, delicious fruit. I'd really like to grow this again next year, but have been unsuccessful at getting any of my bagged blossoms to become a fruit (and don't want to keep wasting them). Does anyone know of a source for seed? I've found a couple of places that sell seed for a variety that sounds like what I have, but none of the descriptions mention "potato leaf". Also, I checked Craig's website for his list of all known potato-leaf varieties, and didn't see any called just "Rose." Can someone help me out? Do I have a partial/incorrect name perhaps? I'd really appreciate any information you can give me.
