Whew! Lots of reading and lots of links trying to figure out what to put in my notes about this tomato.

Has anybody grown the King Humbert out lately? Was wondering what your fruit looked and tasted like. I was going through my seed box and deciding what to grow for this year and I have a few seeds of King Hubert from a friend in Canada. Was kinda wondering what to expect.

It doesn't matter if someone has grown it lately, it matters on which version of it was grown

The link below is a MUST read.

Ahhhhhh! Thanks Carolyn. Guess I'll grow some of my seed out and see what I get. Maybe then somebody can tell me what I possibly have.

Did the oldest version of Umberto being grown ever get established?
