One of the most beautiful tomato plants we have seen with deep green rugose leaves on dwarf, bushy plants. We grew ours in the ground but everyones comment here was that they would beautiful in a container on a patio or deck. The foliage is not the only stand out with this variety; we have never seensuch enormous trusses of fruit like this before, anywhere from 20-60 fruits on one, with 3-4 of these sized bunches per plant. The tomatoes range from 1-2 ounces, have pointed ends with a simple tomato flavor.
