Seed Source: Received from private donor. Was labelled as 'Lancia', but doesn't fit any of the descriptions for that tomato. More than likely a naturally occurring cross.

  • Kelly grew out seeds in 2014, and not fitting any descriptions of 'Lancia' or any other variety, determined it was a natural cross that occurred in that grower's plots.
