Relaying some of my experience growing Heidi, it has the potential to be a very productive plant that’s great for making sauce. I found the growth habit to be a bit strange compared to most of the indeterminates I grow. It is difficult to train up, so it hasn’t worked well in my Earthboxes with trellis or where I string trellis vines. It does do well in beds where it Can be allowed to grow into a large bush, preferably with a large cage for some support.

It grows quite large, so don’t let the “semi-determinate” description suggest it will be a compact plant even compared to indeterminate cultivars.
