Default Mountain Roma X F2 Sun Sugar aka (Serenity) (Sweet Dreams)

The original cross was from Tom Wagner and Tatiana grew it out to the F2 stage with the resulting color variations "Serenity" (orange fruited) and "Sweet Dreams" (Red Fruited). I was lucky enough to get seed for both from Tatiana and am growing the F3's in containers. Both Plants have heavy fruit set and the Red Fruited "Sweet Dreams" was first with ripe fruit and "Serenity" close behind but no ripe fruit as of today. I am posting several pictures of Sweet Dreams plant and fruit. The interesting thing is the flower clusters range from normal to a spray of fruit. Size does vary and the taste of the first fruit was outstanding. Not overpowering sweetness as sunsugar yet a tomato flavor thats enduring and one you would not want to spoil with a vineger type dressing. A chefs delight if you will and a bowl of these on any dinner table will not last long. All the pictures are "Sweet Dreams" except the last two which are the "Serenity" plant to give you an idea of fruit set and physical stature. Ami
