Comments:
2017 Lots of flavour! Sweet/tart taste and very meaty, almost with no seeds. Would make a great variety for sauces and preservation. My plant actually got trampled by my dog, but bounced back a little. Due to this I'm not sure how much stronger the plant would actually have been, and how more productive harvest would have been. Will regrow in a future year to make more sound observations.
