Clara, I received seeds from you for Herodes and this is the info you sent:
1. Herodes (seeds from Moravo Seeds, Czech Republic).
I've found 2 translations via google translator (from Estonian and
Russian language). Sorry, I didn't correct the mistakes:
"Early in the central indeterminate
variety. Fruit large, outer skins, heart-shaped shape,
pinkish color. Fruit weighing 160-180 g."
"Middle-class indeterminate. Fruits are large,
fleshy, heart-shaped, pink. The mass of
160-180g."
Above is the info that Clara gave me about Herodes. Both
translations say pink and it's one she's grown.
%%%%%%
One of the persons who does seed production for me grew it out this past summer and did get pink hearts as
you noted above, but then told me that someone else had said they were red.
So I was directed to this thread and am asking if the info you sent me is correct Clara, or there is a red version, or whatever?
This person would like to SSE list so needs to know some correct background info. I know it's a variety from the Czech Republic but is it a family heirloom or one that was bred by Moravoseeds?
If there are enough seeds I plan to offer it in my seed offer here at Tville, so any info any of you can give me would be be greatly appreciatd,
Thanks,
Carolyn
