karen, while looks to be too big for my early cold tolerant needs, I have another use in mind if it has a long harvest , like til frost. Do you remember how long New Big Dwarf produced?

I would call it late midseason for first ripe fruit, in my garden, guessing about 80 days but that varies of course with lots of factors. big strong dwarf plants. thick rugosed foliage and really delicious firm oblate pink beefsteaks. Nothing "new" about it, a great old tomato which has been a parent or ancestor of a number of the dwarf project tomatoes
I recommend it, you will have to try it in your specific garden to see how it does for you. Did well for me outdoors north of Edmonton, Alberta Canada so hardly prime tomato growing territory. It is indeterminate so certainly capable of setting fruit continuously until frost in good weather. KarenO Last edited by KarenO; January 14, 2018 at 08:47 PM. |

Krayniy Sever is a great early variety. The plants are very compact determinate dwarfs with rugose foliage and the fruits have a very decent taste for an early tomato.

1) grushuvka ...was good in containers ...fine taste... BUT mid-season (Not early).
2) Siberia (rugose leaf dwarf ) was good in containers even 3 gallon . as reported ...did set fruit in LOw temps and earlier than others that would not do amazing things in low temps. 3) There is also a "Siberian" (regular leaf) that is a favourite dependable of many. 4) Siberia and Siberian should also not be confused with "Early Siberian" (Sibirskiy Skorospelyi ) Which also could be interesting to you.

Moravski Div is my go to early variety. It is the only early variety I will plant this year. It produces abundantly and early. The tomatoes have a rich full tomato flavor. The plants survive a hot summer and produce again in the fall. They do require some trimming in late summer to induce more growth and fall production.

I don't think I've ever had a bad textured fruit from MDiv either. So many vars will be mealy on the first fruit of the season, to say nothing of taste. Fruit that retain textural quality in all weather are very special. |

Which means it's a strain (or renaming) of Stupice. Tatiana writes, "A commercial variety from Moravoseeds, Czechoslovakia. The name means 'The Wonder from Moravia'. As some Russian seed vendors stated on their websites, this is one of the strains of Stupice tomato, Stupické polní rané. This information was also confirmed by a representative of Moravoseed company."
