Comments:

2018 Moderately more successful for me than in 2014. There just aren't a lot of flowers on this plant, but those that are there always set fruit. Either it's just not well suited to my area, or it's not a big producer. Approx 1.5 lb/plant
2014 Did not do well for me this year, despite it being a really great year for tomatoes. Good flavour, and nice snacking tomato, but the lack of production is a hit against it. Will try again with newer seed - old seed might have been the main issue. 1.5lb per plant.
