Another one: "KPEPI pink" F1 grown last summer. Irregular ruffles, where they occur.
Parentage is Kitten Paws Pink F2 (Stupice X Black Cherry) gf/- X (Eva Purple Ball X PI120256 F1)
I only had 5 seeds from this cross and grew them all. They were all very vigorous, sweet and tasty, saved seed from this pink and the best tasting red one, which was also irregularly ruffled.
The ruffles in this line come from PI120256 which is a cold tolerant flat ruffled fruit originally from Turkey. They were rather late for us although fast to ripen once they set, tasty but did have quite a few oddball shapes as well. The other parents are nicely shaped but smaller, and none of them have 'pointy' genetics afaik.
