Ah OK Marsha, so after looking at Tatiana's site, the tomatoes that I have are more consistent with Brutus Magnus

and Tatiana's entry for just "Brutus":

Looks like these may be the same tomatoes and developed at Moravoseeds in Czechoslovakia. Is is possible that Marv added the name "Maximum" to the Brutus name after he discovered how large these get?

Vladimir and Andrey most likely used the same seeds for their growouts, right? From Moravoseeds? Perhaps they can chime in.

Regarding flavor, this was not as rich as a Rebel Yell, but it had good sweetness and was quite juicy.
