opalka weirdness

[TerpGal]

Ok, so I am wondering of this in normal or Opalka or maybe I just got a mislabeled plant. I bought it at my local nursery when I inadvertantly snapped the main growing stem on my San Marzano when planting out (I use the trench planting method). So the plant is very vigorous and has a lot of fruit set that look like the pictures of Opalka I've seen, but it definitely do NOT hvae wispy foliage and oddly, I am getting suckers in between leaf nodes as well as the normal place you would see them coming at a 45 degree angle off of branches. What gives?

Sounds like some sort of genetic anomaly.
Maybe even DNA damage due to radiation.

You guys haven't had an atomic bomb go off around there have you?

I think this thread from here might help with the wispiness issue.

I was the person who first introduced Opalka many years ago and I posted several times in the above link,

Hope the link helps,
