Hello Got Worms,

Thanks!, Maybe my years in art school and being an oil painter influenced that. The Orange Russian 117 does taste good, it's a slightly sweet flavor, to me at least, however I didn't get to see how productive it could really be as I used it as a bumper crop mid-way through the season to replace another tomato plant variety I removed in my raised garden bed ( I usually have extra tomato plants that I grow on hand in case I need/or want to replace another tomato plant). I might grow it again this season, I just have to find a spot for it as I'm always trying a few different varieties each year, and regrowing some of my favorites.. ~Alfredo
