I know, so I googled the same company, also looking for other places where there might be a variety called just Ice Cherry, and I found the chili site and no variety called just Ice Cherry.
http://www.rainbowchiliseeds.com/catalog/c6_p2.html So it has to be the other one, the F1 hybrid called Italian Ice. Carolyn

I'm likely weeks away from finding the senders of mystery varieties in the MMMM swap.
Also, if there are going to be many questions about varieties, instead of new threads for each question, perhaps this old thread can be revived... www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=30450 ...or a new 2014 MMMM question thread can be started. |

If you Google even more you will find Carolyn thought Burpee's 'Italian Ice F1' (stated 65 DTM) may have been the 'Snow White' OP cherry or something similar back in '08. Maybe it was a selection, or is that speculation is outdated.
In that same Italian Ice thread someone responded they had grown "ice tomatoes" from paceseeds.com. Paceseeds.com currently doesn't list either Ice Cherry or Italian Ice, but she does have the OP Snow White (75 DTM). That chili link calls something 'White Ice Cherry', so there is ample room for confusion. Best to get the source's thoughts, what if it turns out to be Isis Candy, or a saved generation from the Italian Ice F1, or something else unexpected |

I found the White Ice Cherry too.
I'm now looking for one called, "Pinky Blast". So far, no results. Sounds like a bad accident with a hammer |
