I see you have not visited the other forum lately. We've had several interesting discussions and developments on the wild breeding project (of which you originally helped inspire with Joseph and frost tolerant Habrochiates lines from TGRC).

I'm still growing LA1996 in and of itself as i found it to be a fantastic standalone variety for me last year. Has light blue skin from S. Chilense (and perhaps other genes), but large decent fruit.

i in fact had some volunteer tomatoes this year that self seeded from last year. They are flowering and fruiting now. Im interested to see what i get. It will be a surprise.

One of the cheesmaniae or pimpinellifolium that self seeded in the spot where the pimpinellifolium / peruvianum was growing last year looks like it May have a purple or green stripe on it! I wonder if it got bee crossed with peruvianum or habrochiates! Neither have stripes!


Sorry for the poor early photo. more to come I'm sure.
