My 100's and 1000's seed is OP and not F1. I've been growing it every summer and the plant is the same each year. Where are you getting the F1 seeds from Andrey?

I have grown A Grappoli d'Inverno in the past and again this year I am growing it. I do not care for it as a snacking or salad tomato - much better using in a sauce or when roasted.

Just a few questions.

Goldkrone is not a multiflora, my seeds from Vladimir who posted it at Tania's site

Just long flat trusses of small yellow fruits

Anna Herman, aka Ann German,yes I've grown it

http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/wiki/Anna_Hermann

was not a multiflora when I grew it.

Carol,Riesentraube has been a sister to which variety that you referred to? The only so called sister to the original that I knowof is Yellow Reisentraube.

Riesentraube first

http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/wiki/Riesentraube

and look for the link to the yellow version at the bottom of the above link. I forget who it was now and too tired to check my SSE Yearbook,Tania didn't say much about it,but ONE fruit on a plant with all other fruits being red was yellow,so it was a somatic mutation that was stable.

All for now,back to my regular programming.

Let's not forget Rebel Alliance- a cross of Zluta Kytice X Not Purple Strawberry, produces brown slightly ribbed heart shaped cherries, delicious taste.

Marsha, who did that cross and grew it out to a stable variety called Rebel Alliance and is it a multiflora or the person saw a multiflora when selecting which ones to go forward with?

Just curious since thanks to Clara we have Zluta Kytice and it's still the best multiflora I've grown.

Mr. Russ Aceto did this now stable cross. It is truly wonderful, and truly a multiflora, there were several hundred blossoms on a truss and almost every one set fruit, but in waves where a first group ripened, then the next, then a third.
Carolyn, it is in my photo thread for 2016/2017, and you can also see it in the wanted thread Mark Korney did where he asked for multifloras, I think it was called "looking for mostly multifloras" or something like that.

How about "Britian's Breakfast"

Suttons in UK mentioned this variety as F1 hybrid. But I've never tried the second generation of Hundreds and Thousands and got my seeds from one Tomatovillian...

Well you've changed your answer since I saw it last night where you called Russ my buddy, better to say friend methinks.

When I was still at Xanadu I Pmed him to ask him a question and that's when I found out he was from W NYS, the Rochester area, and I was in grad school at the U of Rochester Med School and we both knew the real Doc and Katie's radio program and the leaflets you could get from them,and that's why he named the website Doc and Katies Xanadu.

He also lives not that far from me and also sent me seeds for two of his Italian family heirlooms.

What I remember most was that after one of my frequent hospitalizations and surgeries, when I got home and had to plow through all the em stuff,there was Russ, sending get well em's almost every other day.

I haven't interacted with him in several years, since I no longer go to Xanadu,as you know.

So how about you sending me some seeds, always looking for a new great multiflora and I can send you a couple of others,not multifloras , well yes, one is although I never grew it personally,that I know you don't have.

If interested, just PM me and let me know yes or no.

Carolyn, regarding Goldkrone:

Last year I grew 3 plants. One had the long double-row trusses and two grew what I suppose are multiflora trusses - possibly hundreds of blossoms on one, of which ca 40 % got pollinated. All plants came from the same seed packet from bobby-seeds. Looking back I should have kept seeds from the multiflora fruit.

I have no idea about the genetics, if these could be two strains, etc.

I'm attaching two photos. The one with the fruit is the regular plant and the huge blossom truss on the left in the second photo is the suspected multiflora plant.

[charline]

My Goldkrone from Vladimir stayed really yellow, not orange like yours. I had long trusses but not as long as yours. How was the color of the multiflora?

[Freya043]

Indistinguishable from the regular - golden yellow. I also noticed no difference in taste. The darker fruits are the ones that got left on the plant for a long time, as I had too many of them. The later multiflora fruits were smaller, I think the plant just bit off more than it could chew.
