Now at F2 -
Two great parents. Damascus Steel is not the most amazing taster, but it is very very productive and stunningly beautiful as well, with excellent shelf-stability after picking. Mikado Orange on the other hand, is a fantastic tasting orange tomato with big, sun-sucking potato leaves. ![]() ![]() FY 3-6. Going forward on looks alone. Taste is a 7/10 ![]() L 5-3 ![]() FY 3-3 |
