Default Heartbreaker Tomatoes

I was given some Heartbreaker seeds and have 2 plants. According to the description the plants are compact, but one of mine is already 5 feet tall and still reaching upward! It is loaded with blossoms. I will take a photo tomorrow. The other one is entirely different in appearance, and about 3 feet tall. The package said the seeds were from Carolyn's 2014 offer. I am curious to see what I get!

I'm curious as well. What Ioffered in my 2014 seed offerwas:

(Heartbreaker, 2 oz pink hearts)

Seeds were from Clara in Germany and best I can remember the Fall 2014 feedback thread indicated that all who posted, it, who requested it, had the right variety.


If the package you got said from my 2014 seed offer I have to assume that what you were sent were seeds the person saved last Fall, and if so, there's a distinct possibility that some X pollination was going on.

You'll know when your various so called Heartbreaker plants set fruits etc. but with some plants being so much taller than others I do think that's what might have happened.

So please keep us updated on what the results show.

Carolyn

Default heartbreaker tomatoes

Here are photos of my 2 heartbreaker plants. One shows how it is up above the deck! The one on the left is the shorter plant. Thanks, Carolyn for your input-I will update as the tomatoes develop.
