Tania, slap a fig leaf or something over that Lithuanian Crested tomato!

So are those strange shapes typical of the variety? Anyone know what, physiologically, causes shapes like that?

Ruth_10,

Many heart shaped tomato's look like the Lithuanian Crested Tania has posted, not all are perfect and round or non-ribbed.
The taste may be perfect though, you'll never know until you try...

Tania,

I believe that tomato wants to conduct some breeding in your garden. Hopefully you made sure it had protection! LOL
