If it's a Russian variety I found only Sputnik F1 tomato bred by Russian seed company Ilynichna. Indeterminate mid-early hybrid with raspberry-pink globe fruits of 100-130 g. Rather desease tolerant (TC5F2).

Hi Andrey
Thanks for your reply....I am not sure it is an F1 because the seed I received came from someone who grows only OP plants (with whom I have lost contact)....I will grow it out to see whether it looks anything like your description....thanks a lot Peter |
