I recently recieved some seeds from a seed swap that I am not really familiar with. Has anyone ever grown a Lithuanian pink beefsteak? I have searched online but can only find limited information. Will it take my average temp of 90* here in Reno? The seedlings are a potato leaf and very hearty, growing faster and larger than the Brandywines, which grew well here last summer. Are the two similar? Also....this year I bought a pack of Botanical Interests Brandywine red and yellow. I can't tell the difference looking at the seedlings which is yellow and which is red......all potato leaf, and yet the packaging claims one is "regular leaf"? HELP!!!
