Yes, Jeanne, I grew this old Russian commercial variety. Last time it was 2 years ago for me.

A cross Shtambovyi Alpat'eva 905 x Bison 639, bred by famous Russian tomato expert Alpatiev. I believe it is from 1950s.

Usually it brings me smaller fruits than for you, but it may depends on growing conditions.

Glad you are enjoying it.
