Dar,

Thank you for saying I can give the seeds out. I was going to ask you privately about that but I didn't want to put you on the spot.

I will save a bunch of seed. Everyone needs this tomato, the world needs it!

Why didn't anyone think of making this tomato before?

No you didn't miss it. I'm saving seeds now. But I never offer anything that someone created without that person's permission. Since Dar says its ok then it's ok. So no you didn't miss out.

Just so you will have the history, Black Krim Cherry was from a bee made cross in my garden in 2008. I grew it out to the F5 which was the plants Jen has this year. This required one year of growing 2 generations of plants. The seed Jen will have are F6 which should be reasonably stable. I would still expect some minor flavor variation, but overall, they should be very very good.

Wow, this sounds like an amazing cherry. I would definitely be interested in some seed.

P.S. Jen, you're descriptions are hilarious!
