My seeds came from Lena Danko (@Danko). Here is her original description:<\/p>\n

“Kozula\/228 (KX 83) \u2013 Polish breeding by Anna Kozula! KX 83. The breeder has now assigned it the permanent number Kozula\/228!
\nTall indeterminate, mid-season variety. Tomatoes weigh 7-10.5 oz (200-300 g), featuring ochre flesh and olive stripes over an ochre base on the outside. A very tasty variety with a bright and rich aroma!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This variety deserves the highest praise. It matched the description perfectly and performed exceptionally well for me. To my taste, Yarson-17 was just a tiny bit sweeter, though Yarson might have lost out to this stunner in total yield. (Or maybe it was just user error on my end with the fertilizer, things happen!)<\/p>\n

Despite the really tough weather conditions this year, it set fruit reliably all the way up to the roof. For me, it acted more like a mid-early variety (I sowed seeds on March 17). The trusses held up great under the weight, and the fruit didn’t crack at all. Extremely beautiful and tasty. Best of all, it ripened perfectly on the counter without losing any of its flavor.<\/p>\n
