Many thanks, Ted, for all the work you have done with this tomato! I really appreciate it!!!

Thanks also for your detailed description of the taste - I could not have done it better!

Let me only add two things: The correct name is "67-Jährige Tomate aus Babelsberg", (= 67 years old tomato from Babelsberg), but I know foreign keyboards don't have that umlaut/mutated vowel, so it's also okay to write "Jaehrige".

Although I tried hard, I could not find out when those 67 years began. For me personally, it's already more than 70 years old, but who knows - perhaps it's even way older.
