How to get to Poland (Andrey) and to Belarus and Germany (GERM SC K) I do not know.
I think that the words "Magnus" and "Maximum" say this tomato is a very big. In doing so, it is still only the original Brutus. I doubt that there is any Brutus F1 (perhaps a business gimmick).

Vladimir, this is what I wrote in my previous post here:

(The one from Andrey that's being grown out this summer sounds like what you are growing, but what about 1 or two of the others from Slovakia/Morovoseeds? Or are we dealing with the former Czechkoslovakia and name changes? So was it a CV from Morovoseeds?)

And you'll see that I was very aware of what happened to what we knew as Yugoslavia and suggested name changes to form Slovakia and the Czech Republic so I'm confident that what is being grown out for me this year is the same as what you are growing.

I also doubt there is anything that some might be calling Brutus F1 and also agree it could be a business tactic.

Thanks so much, and onward we go, and when I get back seeds for Brutus , fingers crossed, I'll let you know what the person said about it. He doesn't take pictures so it will have to be just word descriptions. He also doesn't have a computer so I have to call him, and should this week, to see how germination went with all the varieties I sent to him.
