The fluting and the overall shape is different than anything else I have grown and I have grown quite a few varieties over the years. The fluting is very typical and very similar in every fruit. The general shape is somewhat unusual as well, it's an oxheart but with a blunt rounded bottom so the big 11-18 oz fruits are big and nearly round as a softball, never flattened or oblate and also never pointed.
The only tomato, again if the many I have grown, that is consistently this shape. It's an interesting tomato. Few seeds, nearly solid interior like most oxhearts, thin delicate skin and pink with no green shoulder when ripe. I will add pics of fruit when ripe and interior as well.
