I hope it does well for you. I'm starting to regret that I'm not growing it this year.

And I still go back to my earlier post in this thread b/c I think it is North Star, not one word. Googling Northstar brings up North Star and the information I gave above.

I know that Canadian source that Earl refers to and Earl knows that I know that he knows, ahem, and I would take that spelling to be the true one since there are some other creative spellings there, I think I recall.

I still think it was that fellow in Alaska who bred both Polar Star and North Star. Is it conicidence that he was looking up at the night sky when he named his tomato creations? I don't think so.
