Growers’ Notes and Photos
This variety really impressed me with its yield and how it looked, definitely a memorable one. Started ripening pretty early, it’s a tall indet vine. Keeps fruiting all the way into late fall. Incredible yielder. The fruits are delicious, cocktail-type, averaging about 1.5 oz (40 g) and up, hanging in these gorgeous trusses of 10-12 bright raspberry-pink tomatoes!
Hey Angelina! Is this an open-pollinated variety or an F1 hybrid? I bought these seeds from you the year before last and was super impressed. But when I grew out my saved seeds, the tomatoes were all over the place… and all of them were worse than the original. I decided to buy them from you again, but I’d really like to know if it’s even worth trying to save my own seeds from this?
This is the beauty I got back in 2019 🙂
Delicious cocktail tomatoes. Grew them outdoors in the dirt. Pruned them to 4 stems until August, then just let the vine do whatever it wanted. Produced heavily the entire season. When I was cleaning up the garden for fall, I picked all the green ones—they ripened beautifully indoors, didn’t rot, tasted fantastic, and we were eating them all the way into December. Seeds were from Masha @Murka.

Full Summary: Yield, Flavor, and Storage
- 🌿 Plant: Vigorous indeterminate vine that handles multi-stem pruning well (growers report success with up to 4 stems). It is an early producer that keeps pumping out fruit until the frost kills it. One user noted instability when saving seeds, so watch out for crosses.
- 🍅 Fruit Size & Look: Beautiful, bright raspberry-pink cocktail tomatoes. The fruits average about 1.5 oz (40 g) and form long, loaded trusses holding 10-12 tomatoes each.
- 📈 Yield & Storage: Phenomenal yield outdoors in the dirt. It boasts incredible storage capabilities—green fruits picked before the first frost will easily ripen indoors and can store well into December without spoiling.
- 👅 Taste: Sweet and delicious, maintaining excellent flavor even when ripened off the vine indoors.
