I have several lines still going. They include a very early PL dwarf hirsutum cross, several stable L.chmielewski crosses, and one using LA1777 that is not only edible, but pretty good. It is orange. I sold a number of the dwarf plants at the market last spring and people said they did well.
Below is a photo of the LA1777 cross at F4. The fruit of earlier generations was more brown and russeted. There is some concentric cracking in wet weather, but it is quite cold-tolerant. The foliage still has that odd mushroom aroma.
