Popenko). While the fruit isn&#8217;t fully ripe yet, it has gorgeous green stripes; unfortunately, when it ripens completely, the stripes fade out, or rather, they turn yellow and become barely noticeable. Fruits are meaty, flavor is excellent &#8211; sweet \ud83d\udc4d, and rich. Some fruits are noticeably larger than the variety average (like the sliced one). Kicking myself for not weighing it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/101\/11955-151215162152.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/101\/thumb_11955-151215162152.jpeg\" alt=\"Dino Eggs tomato, photo posted by Nadfi (1)\" width=\"160\" height=\"126\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">D<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Di (Diana) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Vegetable Grower (283 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Received the seeds as a bonus gift with an order from Lidiya.<\/p>\n<p>The fruits turned out bigger than I expected.
