Default Red Target tomato

Since it's impossible to get any info on the internet about this variety except the sellers description I purchased seeds from evergreenseeds and planted it.
The result was a plum shaped tomato with green shoulders which disappear when fully ripe. Top quarter of the fruit is inedible, but the rest is meaty, juicy and very sweet. Taste is good but I miss some tangy kick.

I really like this tomato. Really good tolerance for wet feet but hates when things get too dry. My RT plants have been hurting this year. Still glad to see a few pics other than the one on the Evergreen Seeds site that everyone else seems to use as if it were public domain. I found it to be nice and meaty without the typical bland paste flavor. One of the most underrated tomatoes out there.
