Pitarro, several years ago, I think it was 2006, I found a plant in a tray of cherry tomatoes that was nearly identical to the one in the UC Davis photograph you posted a link to. The foliage looked like Silvery Fir Tree but the plant was erect, indeterminate, not bushy and with few laterals, and got about 6 or 7 feet tall grown out in a 5-gallon pot. The stems were not near as fat as Silvery Fir Tree, but very sturdy and erect. The tomatoes were slightly elongated plum cherries, red, about one inch long and 3/4 inch in diameter. The other plants in the same commercial nursery flat were normal red cherry tomatoes with normal leaf shape, not anything like this one off type.
