Cool Lee, heavy fruit set? Does the plant look like a Cherokee Purple? On the early side?
Had to ask.
Brad.......

Brad,

This plant is growing a little different from others that I have
grown before. It is more short <4' but bushy, even in its
CRW cage.
It is doing quite well with regards to fruit set compared to
all others in the garden. In fact, of the larger sized fruits, it
is in the top 3. This is especially good considering the
year I'm having so far is quite poor due to TSWV and other
issues I haven't qualified yet.....

Looking forward to tasting this one!

Lee

BTW, is Cherokee Purple one of the parents to this variety?

Very cool. Just got back from a very wet weekend near DC at a family wedding reception (my wife's uncle)...haven't seen so much rain since Hurricane Fran! My garden looks like a rice patty - haven't been able to slosh into it to see what's happening in there (I did tie everything up on Friday prior to leaving - lots are blooming, few have set). Will take a look at LBB once the waters recede!
