Flavor Bomb WILL be invited back to our garden! We always grow 2 Sunsugar, Flavor Bomb will replace one of them next year. I saved seed from store bought and it appears to have grown true to size, color and taste.

At first I almost pulled the plant. When smaller, a truss would develop, flowers would appear but break off from the stem and I'd be left with a truss full of broken off stems. This continued until a truss appeared about about 3 feet up.

Once that first successful truss appeared, oh my! It is a VERY healthy, large plant growing more upright than my Sunsugars which tend to become monster and sprawl everywhere. It is loaded with fruit; not as sweet and sugary as Sunsugar, more of a 'real' tomato flavor.

Am I best off to use my saved seed from the store bought or to save seed from this plant?
