Brandeva

Who else is growing it? I grew one plant and it seems to be a productive variety. I tasted my first one today, and was very suprised by the flavor. I would rate it at least an 8. Better than one of its parents Eva Purple Ball.
I will definately grow it again next year.

I grew it quite a few years ago and also thought it was a pretty darn good variety but don't remember the specifics enough to comment.

It was bred by Dr. Jeff McCormack, the former owner of SESE from a cross between Brandywine and Eva Purple Ball, thus the Brandeva name, and he sent me the seeds.
