Reviews
I bought this plant last year at Tomatomania. People were raving about it like it was the star of the year, mostly due to its unique color, but it didn't do much for me and the flavor was kind of bland. Then it died very early, after a couple of months. I wouldn't try it again. There are far too many other fantastic tomatoes.

Round fruits with thick honey-brown colored skin and green shoulders.

Soft and well balanced taste.
