Hey Bill, I thought I would add that the remaining F1 seeds I have from Sungold X Indian Stripe will be getting some play in the greenhouse this fall. I'll keep you updated for sure.
p.s. the ones from last year were accidently mowed down, thus no update.

What did i think about them.It was a great tomato to watch,it looked like a real peach.Full grown it was orange red with e red blush even the fuzzy skin was there,the taste was in between a salad tom and a beefsteak,juicy,just the righttomato flavour.In one word a keeper for me.i will add some pics(if it works,never done ot here).  |

I am new to the site, great discussions- My wife and I run a specialty tomato farm in NC- would love to grow out some seed for any of you to test in the field in 2009- please let me know if you have any F1s, F2s, or others that you would like me to seed increase or select from.
I also have my favorite heirloom selections in bulk to share if you want.
I have 10 acres under cultivation currently.
Thanks

I focus on tomatoes, but do also grow squash, beans, sweet potatoes, and some pumpkins, mostly for restaurants in the Charlotte region

PapaVic,
These are truly fascinating crosses - and I have seen some (Brandywine X NAR) are already gaining popularity! I am interested to hear more about Indian Stripe x Sungold and Juane Flammee x Sungold - given the parents these should be very good. Did you pursue these and what came out?
Any new crosses that you are working on these days?
Tania

Paging PapaVic.
I repeat Tania's questions. How are the crosses working out?
