Seems to be a small grape with incredible truss vigour (you can see how thick the little 'stems' or whatever the things that the fruits hang onto are). I also am curious about the taste. Riesentraube is a jolly good multiflora with fairly 'big' fruit (up to-20g, so it's much easier to pick than some of these extreme tiny ones), with strong taste (non-sweet), so I wonder if any multiflora will beat that.

Charline, your containers need more food. There's a clear lack of fertilizer there, considering the leaf colour and shape and also the flower truss location so near the growing tip.

Charline, how is production of the beautiful, gorgeous Surpriz (coeur de surpriz)? And do you have all heart shaped fruits or the shape varies?
Tania has it on her website, she does not offer seeds yet. She grew it last year but the production was low.

[charline]

cant say nothing about taste and production yet. They are just starting off.
Shape on this plant is all heart. I have two other plants that are only blooming because planted later.
I will report later in the season...

Thank you, Charline.

michael pollan is ripe



and look at this incredible meaty tomato, all flesh, almost no seeds (12 seeds for this size of tomato is REALLY low.) my first real big one this year

it is VERNA ORANGE sweet and fruity

[Hellmanns]

I used to grow several Verna Orange. They had a huge following with my customers with some of those intestinal disorders because they were nearly seedless.

Charline, about your Harlekyn one

It looks to me like either gold flecking orfruit pox, and here's a few links that migh thelp

First,some pictures

https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&....0.S99D3ThLhLs

and now some links

https://www.google.com/#q=gold+fleck...tomatoes&hl=en

check out the tville links in the above.

There's a variety that I've grown that also has permanent gold flecks,I couldn't find good pictures,but here's a link to the variety that mentions the metallic gold flecks

https://www.mariannasheirloomseeds.c...ly-detail.html

If you read some of the links you'll find that there is no one cause,but Depp's Pink Firefly has been stable for gold flecking for many years so I don tend to believe that a gene or 2 might be involved.

Charline, your Harlekyn should have a few more golden spots/stripes, similar to Feuerwerk/Fejerwerk. Last year, when it was very hot for a long time, my tomatoes were rather dappled.

Perhaps you can see a bit more here:

Clara, I considered using Feuerwerks as an example as well since I did know the variety name, and here's Tania's link

The first picture on the left is OK but the next one is just plain weird and the variety is being called a striped variety.

I'm somewhat desperately, well not really,trying to think of another one I have seen,not grown by me,and so far I can't remember it even going through the ABC's several times.

Do you ever go through the ABC's when trying to remember a person's name or a variety of this or that?
