Default I'm growing "Kardio Karpos" after many year, is anyone else?

I got seeds through this forum 8 or ten years ago for "Kardio Karpos". I grew it one time back then and saved seeds which I have started this year. I had three started, one regular leaf and two potato leaf. I remember the original plants I grew were potato leaf so that is the two I have grown this year. I remember it as a heart-shaped, pinkish-red tomato. Is anyone else growing this? I also wish I could remember who was developing it and I think that is who I received the seeds from. I have two huge potato leaf plants growing and I will post pictures once I have fruit.

Check out Kardia Karpos at Tania's Tomatobase. Apparently Gary discovered it .

I grew Kardia Karpos only this one year, I think. There's quite a bit of information/confusion in this old thread, but you might find some of it helpful:

Thanks, Kath, I read it through. I remember from back then harvesting pink hearts. I will update as they ripen. I did get three seeds to germinate and of those two that I planted were PL and one was RL that I gave away.

You're welcome! Maybe Tormato will have more to add when he returns.
