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

That is one gorgeous looking tomato. I know exactly what you mean about the consistency of papaya. Heirloomtomaguy - if, after growing hundreds of tomato varieties, you say this is the best tasting tomato you've eaten.... Well, you've got my undivided attention. 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) Last edited by kchd..; June 22, 2016 at 11:46 PM. Reason: adding last sentences |

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.
