Seeds came from E. Gorlova. The plant stays about knee-high. It has dark, rugose potato leaves. It’s a really sturdy plant that makes a gorgeous, stocky seedling.
The tomato is light green with green shoulders, and it gets a pinkish blush on the blossom end when fully ripe. When you slice it open, the flesh looks exactly like a kiwi. Taste has a noticeable tangy bite to it.
