Default A nice looking striped bicolor

This is still an early generation breeding line. I just hope I can stabilize the colors and the taste.

Wow that is one beautiful tomato. Looks kinda like a BTDP but with much brighter colors and bigger.

Like many bicolors it has fruity overtones, but a solid tomato taste. I gave it a 8.5 in my field notes. This is only a F2, so there will be opportunity for fine tuning.
