I guess he has a wife or similar which maybe writes those description.

If I would be selling tons of varieties it would be difficult to write descriptions, since it's unlikely I would like them all, so I can't just say bad things about them. 'decent setter, grassy offtaste, ★★★★ production, but we sell it anyway'.
