Supposedly practically stable, sitting at F7 in 2018. It&#8217;s a mid-season indet with regular leaves. The vine is sturdy, getting to about 5.2\u20135.6 ft (1.6\u20131.7 m) tall. I pruned mine to two stems.<\/p>\n<p>The fruits are oblate (round and slightly flattened) with light ribbing, weighing 5\u20139 oz (150\u2013250 g). The color is dark red with a purple blush, and it can sometimes show spots or mottling. Mine actually threw stripes. The flesh is blood-red with pink marbling &#8211; it&#8217;s firm, but at the same time incredibly juicy with a lot of gel and seeds. Very aromatic with a bold, pronounced flavor.<\/p>\n<p>Yield was just average for me. My seeds were from Valdis Pulins.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132438.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132438.jpeg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132308.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132308.jpeg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132223.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/14878-150818132223.jpeg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/236\/14878-220818024523.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/236\/14878-220818024523.jpeg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/236\/14878-220818024559.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/236\/14878-220818024559.jpeg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"post-lana\" class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">L<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Lana_s_Kavkaza (Svetlana) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Honored Member (19,271 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Pyatigorsk, USDA Zone 6<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>I grew the &#8220;KOZULA-127 RUDY PL&#8221; version this year, from Belgian seed stock.
