some growing in my greenhouse.Now i am confussed because on andreys seed bag was standing korol rannikh,king of the early ones.He discribed it as mid-early indeterminate plant,pink rasberry flattend-globe 150-400gram fruits ,mine are more red with yellow shoulders and starts with a weight of 400 gr and more.It is also more a late than a mid-early one.

crazytomato,

My Korol Rannikh seed was from Andrey as well, and it was also red, not pink as he described. I think he may have made a mistake describing the fruit color.

This is how mine looked like - see http://t-garden.homeip.net/mwiki/ind.../Korol_Rannikh

Yes, I must confirm that both Korol Gigantov and Korol Rannikh have got red fruits. That was my mistake in describtion.

Good yield in Netherlands you had, crazytomato!
