hmm.
i wonder if it's something to do with this board's settings...but once the pics are posted here, they look a little more orange. in my last pic...mine looks like craig's with inside looking to be a different colour than the skin.
not so in real life...or even in the original pics before posting them to here.
just FYI.
same lemon yellow inside and out.

It's Tessa in the yellow corner, looking calmly confident that the heart will remain in Westralian hands, and PP in the green corner, drooling salaciously and fiery with determination that the heart will move eastwards!
Come to think of it, Raymondo is also drooling!!!

Resurrecting this thread with an updated photo. Love this variety. One of the better tasting so far this year.
7.5/10 on my scale for the first sample.

I found the last of some old seeds from Suze's past SSE yearbook offering and have a couple of plants going also. I was happy to see in the older posts, photos of rounded blunter points, since my developing fruit so far was not as pointed as I thought I remembered it. It didn't do well for me the year I grew it, so I thought I'd give it another chance and freshen my seed stock.

Greg,

I believe there about 8-9 set fruit on the plant so far. It's a typical wispy/thin foliage plant. The fruit size shown is around 1/2 pound. The other one I got already was 5/8 pound.
