Beautiful! I have two plants going strong and I can't wait for them to ripen!

Isn't it??

When they are ready, most will go right into a pot for sauce!!

Just a pretty plant with them ripening at once!

So that is what they look like. I tried a dozen times to grow Coustralee but it seems to be highly susceptible to fusarium so I was unable to get one above 2 ft tall before they died. I have heard it is a very good tasting tomato which I will never be able to confirm. Congratulations.
