I'm the ultimate heart lover but off hand I can't think of any I've grown that are ribbed.I have a list of hearts I've grown in my data book, but stopped listing them maybe two years ago, so to date,maybe several hundreds of heart varieties grown.
My two favorite kinds of varieties to grow have been hearts and Green When Ripes , and yes,there are some GWR hearts as well,well maybe just one that I can remember right now and that is Reinhard's Green Heart.

I think the above are enough for now.
And several new hearts sent to me from Andrey, already being selected by the seed producer group.
And several new hearts sent to me by Lotte, but not written down in my data book so would have to search my e-mails to find that list.Too much on my to do list right now.
Of the ones I listed about all were grown for me,or in the past by me.
Carolyn,who knows she's a dedicated heart lover, but as the years go forward,she's been more interested in taste,than fruit form or yield.
