Hmmm, heart shaped says Travis?

I love this variety. Not a paste tomato and yes, somewhat juicy, not as seedy as many, excellent yield, lovely taste, and my seeds directly from Reinhard in Germany as I'm sure Clara's were via perhaps Herr Hahm, who sells many of Reinhards varieties that he introduces as well as ones he's bred.

Mine were plum shaped, not heart shaped or even almost heart shaped, a large plum at that. I don't know how to explain texture, I could if it were one of the many paste varieties that have dense flesh, I think, but I can't describe the texture of this variety.

What I can add is that the plants were vigorous and the taste excellent and I'd use them simply as a fresh eating tomato or cut up in salads, etc.
