Yes, that's the way I recall it as well. And so was Earl's Faux, right?

Patty, same variety, just a misspelling. I've seen it like that on the Tomatofest site and a couple of others.

And Gary at Tomatofest knows me very well, ahem, so I don't know what the problem is.

I've also seen it spelled Caroline at the Landreth site, which someone called my attention to.

I'm Carolyn the person and my user name is carolyn137 at all places where I post. The variety, as named by Steve Draper, is Dr. Carolyn.

Ha Ha Bully In your dreams friend, in your dreams.

Carolyn ...

Can the fruit vary in color ?
Seed from you produced fruits for me
that were more in the lines of yellow
with some ivory undertones ...
Bullys looks dead on ivory ...
Also, fruit size was smaller ...
you know what ...
from what I remember
they looked like the pic in your book !

I have no pics of it ... they never made
it to the "waxer-photo-sessions" !
Chomped on right in the garden ~ lol ~
