Grower: Kelly

Year: 2023

Accession:

Seed Source: Seed from Dan & Val McMurray's collection. They received it from the USDA Plant Germplasm System PI 276326.

Comments:

2023 This was one of my best producers this year! It was later than I expected at 84 days, although I think that may have been due to heat/smoke. Very smooth, round red fruit. Nice classic tomato flavour, really good for fresh eating. I grew one in a 5 gal pot (did great) and another in a 3 gal (did terribly), so definitely needs minimum 5 gal to grow effectively. Plant was about 2.5ft tall, averaged about 2.1 kg/plant (4 lb 13 oz).

History

  • Donated to the USDA from Norway in 1961. Original description is: "Early bush tomato; fruits smooth, uniform ripening." ([1]).
  • This variety likely comes from Scandinavia, although I hadn't find any direct evidence. Norderas seems to refer to an area in Sweden, although maybe also an area in Norway. Busk is a shared word for "bush" in several Scandinavian languages. If anybody coming across this page has any insight, please send me a message!
