I read what she said about her Russian Mini Yellow, but my plants sure do grow taller than what she described - they grow almost as rampantly as Matt's Wild Cherry, but not quite. Mine in the hoophouse are at least twelve feet tall now, though the clusters look exactly like the photo she posted, with five or six fruits per cluster. I think, though I am not certain, that I got the original seeds from one of your offers. I just wish they were easier to pick for market, but they are so small it takes forever to get a pint basket filled, and I have to pick carefully so as to leave the stem on, or they split and I have to eat them myself. Well, I don't mind that part so much...
