Stupice is a great tomato in cold places like Newfoundland and the mountains of Idaho (my zone 4 home). Look for the biggest blossom's for easier emasculation (and try using the tip of an exacto knife, works really well) If you like Stupice, you should try Jeff Casey's Maya and Sion's Airdrie Classic, it's a stable, great tasting, productive, early selection of Stupice x Suddith Brandywine. I've got a lot of breeding lines in F1 and F2 involving it as well as Stupice.

Oaxacan Jewel (just because it came up, and it's pretty). You should TOTALLY cross it to Stupice.
If you'd like seed from any of the above, I'd be happy to send them along.
