First Anna Russian over 1lb

Ice Angler · August 19, 2014

Got my first Anna Russian over 1lb.

I don't know exactly how much it weights because it easily bottomed out my 16oz kitchen scale.
The others weighed in around 8 or 9 ounces.

I'm a tomato noob so even getting the Anna Russian plants this far growing from seeds was a big accomplishment for me.

Big accomplishment for anyone. Those are beauties. My Anna R. Didn't do nearly as well.

Very nice. I had some German Red Strawberry tomatoes this year that weighed over 1 1/2 lbs. Not so big last year. You never know.

Very impressive. I have been growing those on and off for 10 years and haven`t grown any over a pound.I have two plants in this year and one should give me some nice ones but the other plant only has a couple on it. All still green.

At the end of the season don't forget that Anna Russian makes the BEST fried green tomatoes!

Very lovely size! And it is one of my favorite tomato varieties.

I LOVE Anna! She is so beautiful and tasty too. I'm glad not to have any real whoppers though because I wouldn't know what to do with them! I'd probably have to can them.
