Default Multiflora tomato "Ildi" putting on a show.

Amazing sprays of blooms with hundreds of individual blooms in this Ildi plant day 50 out in the open garden zone 3. I'd like to know what other multifloras are being grown this year and what ones taste best?

Nice, my Zluta Kytice looks like that, as a bonus they taste great as well. I have been dehydrating some and they are amazing. I hope to grow several multifloras next year. Chrisk has some multiflora crosses if your interested I'm sure he would share seeds, I got one (just a number as the name) and will be growing it next year.

I grow 100's & 1000's every year and the taste is good. Maybe I'll try the Ildi next year. I have my plant on a tall stand and it drapes over the side.

Yeah my Zluta didnt stop growing at 4ft as I had read so I topped it and let another stem grow from the bottom which also set hundreds of flowers. These multiflora maters seem to be quite vigorous and handle any abuse you throw at them. I sold around 30 of these as seedlings and people love them.

Blondkopfchen tomato or Blondköpfchen in German. Means Little Blond Girl.
It is multiflora. Yellow (golden) not too sweet. One of the plants that usually survives until the frost.
