Here's my new release that I named to honor my Dad. Everybody called him "Pappy" and it is from him that I got my love of tomatoes and gardening. I had several choices of tomatoes to name for him because of my work on candidates over the last 9 years. This one was always special. Here's the description I put up at HeritageSeedMarket.
"Pappy’s Dream – New 2016 release from the Muddy Bucket Farm. The taste of the pink fruit is rated as 8.5/10.One of it’s parents is Goose Creek (Pink).I’m happy it favored that parent.This full sized indeterminate plant will load up and deliver smooth round, slightly oblate fruit in good numbers.It’s been stable for the last 4 years and is at generation F8. This one should be on your “must grow” list.Fruit range in the 6-12 oz range and are usually blemish free.The name was chosen to honor my Dad.It took me 4 years to find one good enough.I had several to choose from, so you gotta know this one is pretty good." This tomato was born out of love and respect for my garden mentor. I hope you like it.
