Probably my best tomato in 2020. The vines are tall, around 6.5 feet (2 m). The plants are tough with thick stems, dense foliage, and strong fruit trusses that don&#8217;t kink or snap. The fruits are large, bright red with slight ribbing. They usually look like wide hearts, but can also be barrel-shaped, weighing 17-25 oz (500-700 g) and up. It&#8217;s a mid-season variety and a heavy yielder.

The fruits are huge, a lot of them were right around 2.2 lbs (1 kg), some even bigger, and the absolute smallest tomato on the plant was about 21 oz (600 g). The taste is excellent, a real, balanced tomato flavor. If you feed it well, it&#8217;s an incredibly vigorous producer!
