Default Alex Popovich Yugoslavian

This one caught my eye in particular as the last name is the same as mine less the H, and my father was born in Serbia. The description and pictures look like a nice red variety. Does any one here have any plans for a 2016 grow?

A beautiful tomato, with some excellent taste remarks. This is the niche I'm filling with Cosmonaut Volkov, I'll have to look as to how they compare.

Great point, read many positive posts regarding CV and may add it to my fall grow this year if it will fair in my local climate. Hoping Marsha or other S, Florida growers can chime in w/ regards to CV. However, will definitely be trying the Popovich seeds.

I do know Alex, and in the past he's sent me many varieties, but not this one and he was the one who also sent me a book on how to learn Russian, and also not that far from Tania in BC, Canada/

I have many Yugoslovian varieties,still called Yugoslavian from before the country was split.

One of my best ones is

Yasha also gave me what we called Yasha Heart.

Tania hasn't updated for 2015 or 16 but note that she is still selling seeds for it, and before that many places selling seeds who probably also still have it.
