I am growing 2 plants of it this year. Between it and Genovese it was earlier and so far has produced far more for me. I am doing more sauce this year and have a lot more plants. So far about 12 quarts of sauce have been made. Plan on a lot more. No where to your level brokenbar but good for a family of 2 and an occasional raiding of pantry by grown kids. I have grown these tomatoes due to you raving about them.
I had a great time eating in Italy. Oh the fresh made pasta! Love food and yes I need to lose weight but I like the way I am, so I will continue to eat yummy multicolored food with my beef (Iron deficiency anemia). I plan on dying happy LOL.
