Unknown floriferous yellow cherry

[psa]

Last year I grew Juane Flammee for the first time, and it was very good. However, not all of my Juane Flamme were what they were supposed to be. At least one plant was a yellow cherry with slightly elongated fruit and a somewhat tart flavor. This precocious plant set branching sprays of around 60 flowers per single attachment to the stem. It set fruit on around 50% of these flowers (but not all at the same time) and produced a tremendous amount on stems that eventually reached more than eight feet.

This is by far the most productive tomato I've grown (which isn't saying a lot since I'm not as experienced as many here). This year I have volunteers in the garden true to form - same color, same flavor, same size plant, same incredible sprays of flowers. My guess is I had some other seed mixed in last year, but I have no idea what. I posted about it on DG last year, when I just figuring out that these were not really what they were supposed to be.

Comparison with the actual J. Flammee, note the point on the end of some of the yellows:

Ciao PSA,

You know what....your "floriferous" (I love that word) plant looks a whole lot like Mirabell Multiflora to me. We have it growing in our 7 year old's garden. It's supposedly a determinate, but it's getting very rangy. Both the flower sprays and the fruit look very much like what you're showing in your pictures.

Googling "Mirabell Multiflora" brought me to a GW page with a reference to Blondkopfchen, which on further investigation, has plants, flowers, and fruit that look just like mine.

Mirabell Multiflora still seems to be a mystery (did you receive your seed from Sandhill?) but this could be it.

One thing that bothers me, however, is that my fruit is a bit on the tart side, and I haven't found descriptions of either of these that mention that characteristic.

Thanks for your help.
