SO pretty and it sounds divine, especially for those of us loving a fruity sweet tomato. If you need a zone 6 east coast volunteer, I'm in.

If the taste is as awesome as the look, you have a great find there. On another note, If you want to see how it does at the 62nd I will subject myself to trialing that. LOL

I will enjoy reading this thread to learn what you have to say next!

And I will gladly volunteer space for testing in a garden in zone 8a MS.

PureHarvest, you nailed it (gollum, gollum)

So beautiful! I love how the gel around the seeds adds another color contrast. I'm willing to step up as a zone 5a fruity tomato-loving volunteer grower should you so desire.

Now that's an endorsement. Fingers crossed for the offspring.

I, like the rest of the patriots, volunteer to serve.

Excellent Medovyi Gigant fruit!

Please, use the original Russian name of this variety which can be translated as Honey Giant.

This variety reminds me of Anannas Noire that I have been growing.

AN is one of my top favorites.
