Croatian Tomatoes

kkacan · June 16, 2011

Hi All,

I just wanted to share these tomatoes my sister brought back from our family farm in Croatia. They have really surprised me with their growth. I am really excited for these to set fruit because they are kind of a mystery to me. My sister can't remember what the fruit looked like so I am excited to see. I can guess from their vigor they will hopefully be a large fruit. I've heard of a "Brandywine from Croatia" but I'm not quite sure what it's fruit looks like. If anyone has any photo's of a Brandywine from Croatia fruit that would be cool. Well here they are.

Happy Gardening All,
-Kristina K.

Kristina, as you know, you and I have been in contact privately about your Croatian tomato and I'm going to link to the thread at garden web where you started a thread about it so as to bring others here up to date.

I think you got to Tville b/c of the link I sent you last night which was a listing of varieties in my last seed offer here.

And I'm glad you decided to stop by.

Here's the link to your Garden Web thread:

And in that thread I also gave you a link to Tania's page on the Croation so called Brandywine.

I'm not sure exactly what you're after b'c since you received the seeds from your family in Croatia and they came to you not named, it would be very difficult, I would think, to ID by variety name, what you have, if that's what you're looking for from others here at Tville.

And here's the initial thread about the Croatian Brandywine that was posted here back in January:

I think this Tville link has some very interesting info in it and you'll see that several who posted in the above thread also posted in your GW thread.

Hope that helps and looking forward to hearing from you via e-mails sent.
