Default Finally, I think I can put the Red Jazz debacle behind me.

A few years ago I had 3 or 4 candidates for "Red Jazz" a red beefsteak tomato with yellow stripes.

I sent seeds out to people, and to make a long story short, they all sucked. So I will understand if no one believes I can make a good red tomato with yellow stripes.

But, after many wrong turns in my attempts to come up with a good red beefsteak, I finally have one that does very well for me. The only question is how well it will do in other places, but I am pretty optimistic that it will do well most places.

If you are curious about this new tomato, seeds will be available in February and the easiest way to get them is through a kickstarter project we have set up. The tomato is called "Lecce"
