Rose de Bern

amberroses · November 21, 2010

This is my first time growing Rose de Bern and it looks like it is going to have a really big tomato fruit. I was expecting a small/medium size tomato, but this one is a lot bigger than my Black Krim fruits. Is this the size they are supposed to be? If not I guess it will have its own merit as giant tomato

I've grown Rose de Berne. It was large but not huge. Definitely not small. I haven't grown Black Krim so I can't make the comparison.

I've grown Rose de Berne some years ago and had several fruits of about 1 lbs, but some were smaller. Very thin skin and very good taste! clara

It looks like I may have the right plant. It is still the biggest fruit I have right now. Thanks for the info all.
