I don't have any ripe fruit yet, but the plant is doing great in a 10 gallon grow bag. If it turns out to be Hillbilly PL, I will send you some seeds. Or, it could be a cross, which might be even more interesting. Pics below.
I am positive I didn't mix up the seeds as I only planted the Hillbilly after my GGWT fell to damping off. It is the only seed I started that day.]

Scott,
Thank you for the feedback! The "Hillbilly" seeds Ellie sent were from her stash of gift seeds. When her growouts don’t produce the quantity of seeds necessary to list at the site she will often send them as gifts. I'm guessing you have a heterozygous line of Hillbilly (rather than a cross or mutation). If it turns out to be an exceptional segregation then you might grow it side-by-side with "Hillbilly Potato Leaf" to determine if there is a difference. It looks like your plants are doing great with our unusual, hot, humid weather. How are your plants doing in general? Spider mites?
