Remy,

That is a gorgeous tomato. When you eat it or save seed from it, can you take a photo of a cross section showing the seed locules. If you do save seed from it, I would appreciate a comment regarding the seed volume compared to other varieties.

Thanks

Ted

Mine looked pretty too, I forgot to mention that in my earlier post.

This is what I got last year in the greenhouse. I'm growing it again and it's looking similar, although none ripe yet. It's late here, but tasty.

That one is already gone and seeds saved, but I've got lots more so I'll take a pic of one of those for you. I think the seed amount was fairly high. I saved so many seeds that night it is hard to say positively though.

I must have grown a wrong type. Mine were more brown looking (yellow epidermis with more green flesh) than either of those tomatoes, and the insides were more open and seedy.
