Not intentional. I saved Elgin Pink seeds from 2 tomatoes. I grew them out and some kept coming up RL. The PLs grew true to type. At first I discarded the RLs then as I observed it was consistent, I grew out 8 plants.
Those F1s are RL and produce the tomato pictured, the shape of the tomato (during initial growth stages) and the census data point to Anna Maria's H, no other hearts were growing at the time and it was adjacent to the Elgin P. I'll be saving the F2s. Taste test forthcoming. If it's what I anticipate, I'll be growing out a lot of tomatoes from this cross, as you say, with such a lineage they can't be bad.
The F1 is stronger on the leaf diseases spectrum relative to AMH.
