It is most likely a typo or a variation of the same variety. Having grown Polish (Ellis), introduced by Bill Ellis, several times and Stump of the World even more often, I have never grown them at the same time. There are many varieties that are so similar one could be mistaken by the other.

Craig is so knowledgeable I would trust his opinion. Sounds like next year it will be a side-by-side experiment in my garden.

Of the fifteen "Polish" varieties listed in the variety bible on the Tatiana's Tomatobase, only one is Polish(Ellis). If you grow Ellis you will enjoy it I am sure. And Stump as well. I purchase seeds from Sandhill and the photo looks like an Ellis, so I am sure it is an Ellis.
