\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> A mid-early, determinate variety producing large, perfectly round, bright orange tomatoes with sweet, low-acid flesh. Highly regarded for its taste, but watch out for commercial seed packets (SibSad) that frequently contain pink heart-shaped off-types. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Description from the seed packet: “Mid-early, determinate variety with large fruits of a rare bright orange color. The bush grows 2.3-5 feet (0.7-1.5 m) tall depending on growing conditions. The plant sets 7-9 clusters of sunny, twin-like fruits weighing up to 14 oz (400 g). The tomatoes are perfectly round, dense, and the color of ripe oranges. The flavor is delicate, sugary, and low in acid. Recommended for dietary needs. Good, stable yield.”<\/p>\n

Tasty and beautiful. The bush isn’t very tall – reached about 5 feet (1.5 m) in the greenhouse. Seeds from SibSad (Siberian Garden).<\/p>\n

I got an off-type. Mine grew out as a heart-shaped tomato with pink marbling on top. Going to have to toss it from the pile I set aside for seed saving. \ud83d\ude1e<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I got an off-type too! Planted it from a SibSad packet, and it also turned out to be a pink heart. It was very productive, though.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
