Default Polish Egg hard cull to one seedling

Hi all ,

I have the last Seedling of Polish Egg for this year going ..

It resulted from some wierd thing and all My Polish Egg seedlings were

wiped out (disease)? (accidental cull !) .......exept one small one .(unaffected for some reason ). (which I was not even sure it was Polish egg ) ...It grew slower...but it was extremly healthy looking and sturdy ..

It was so sturdy it was eye catching as .it had a thicker stem than normal

regular leaf.....and held itself up more than most regular leave Indeterminates(even with some fruit )..

It surely does have the Plum shape fruit ...and loads the vines ....(which now needs support ).....But it seems later than expected ..but very healthy looking.

Needless to say I will be keeping seeds from this "Hard selected" Polish egg.

It's funny how it turns out with seedling mistakes...but it is turning out to be an interesting plant .

Maybe next year I can get a jump on all the development earlier and then see

how it would work.
