Tel-Aviv Train sounds like a tomato worth trying. I've nevet taken the Tel-Aviv train (I always used the bus from Jerusalem..) but I heard it's wonderful scenery. Never grew an Israeli tomato, and I know there are not so many known Israeli OP varieties. The country is more famous for its modern agriculture innovations and hybrids that feed Europe in wintertime..
(going to peel a Jaffa orange soon..) |

I believe it is a heart, not a cherry, but I have Jerusalem for the first time this year as well.
And yeah, Salt, I think I have a few plants of the Wow cherry as well. |

I grew Wow cherry one year and didn't think that it compared to Sungold.

hmmm, I always have been a little skeptical of Fedco's seed descriptions. I'm not saying they are dishonest, just a little too optimistic for my taste.
I also just found a few plants of Malawi, which I believe is a red cherry. I have not grown it yet, either. |
