Earl's Faux tomato

Lindalana · July 8, 2014

Are those "skinny" tomato plants? Both of mine are lending itself into two main stems with little to no side shoots and seems to stay on " I already pruned myself" bush type, not that I prune any of mine. Just curious... seems to be setting fruit very nicely too. Can't wait to taste.

It's always been a "normal" plant for me.
Everything normal, except the flavor.

A top 10 out of many hundreds of varieties trialed.

Never did good for me here in NC. Average at best.

If memory serves, Earl's Faux growth was more moderate, not as tall as other large pink PL's grown the same season. But it could have been influenced by it's space in the garden, not all my beds have equally good soil.
