As always, your plants look beautiful!

Looking REALLY good!! Very healthy and vigorous. Don't you love it when your hard work pays off? Excited to hear updates on your crosses.

Ami, What is that second to last tomato? Hmmm.

Looks great. Good luck the rest of the way!

Thanks,

Greg

Greg, the tomato you are inquiring about is called "Ceman". This is from Reinhard kraft's stable and Carolyn and I are growing it out this year. Discription of tomato as follows;

Favorite variety from family Ceman who immigrated from East Germany to Southern Germany in 1970. This variety has been grown many years with seed saved from the best fruit each year. Pink/Red indeterminate, paprika form up to 6" long with excellent flavor and production. Ami

Ami, may I ask you to save some seeds of Ceman for me? Perhaps we can do some exchange this year.
Viele Grüsse, clara

clara, just send me a reminder in September and will be happy to do so. Ami

Here some I'm growing under my balcony. The first two are from Brad gates stable, "Brads Black Heart" and a new one "Scabitha" that Reinhard Kraft grew last year and said it was the best of the bunch. The third is "Stump Of The World" and am looking forward to trying it out. Now if they would only get some color. Ami
