Comments:
2022 Really nice beefsteak type red fruit, good flavour and used very well for fresh eating and sauces/salsa. Plants did very well in the ground, although wasn't in an ideal location. I have a feeling in a better spot this one would produce more and slightly earlier. The seed I received was likely old because germination was absolutely abysmal, but I did get fresh stock to grow again, and I'll put it in a better spot next time around. Definitely worth growing again! Approx 2.1 kg (4lb 10 oz) per plant, fruit was about 233 g each with the biggest in the first push of fruit.
