JD's Special C-Tex X Belmonte or Guido
Received these seeds from Ami and currently have 5 plants working in the garden. Not sure if this is a cross with Belmonte or with Guido ( NOT Pietroboni). Ami only said that the plant was supposed to be JD's and had fruit that looked different - possibly a cross with one of its two neighbors. Anyhow, here's the first pictures of fruit. The plants are regular leaf and indeterminate.

Very healthy plants. It will be interesting to see what you come up with. Seems like we have some different fruit shapes. Are these pictures from the different plants?

One picture each from 4 of the 5 plants. The 5th plant has a lot of blooms, but has not set fruit yet. We're still running behind the time schedule due to our early weather. Check out Frogsleap Farm's thread. Stripes a'bunch coming there.

Now I'm more than curious what will come out of my JD's Special C-Tex X Belmonte/ Guido Pietroboni, Ami and Ted! Due to late transplant, it has only a few and small fruits. I shall have a closer look tomorrow, but I can say that it's Rl and indet., too. clara

Correction. It is NOT Guido Pietroboni, just GUIDO. I'm thinking maybe you assumed Pietroboni. Ami

Just a few minutes ago in full sunshine: My fruits (still green) look a little bit different from yours, Ted: All are heartshaped, the shoulders are much darker green than the rest and there are some darker stripes in the lighter green. Seem to become interesting fruits! clara
