Be still my beating heart! Maybe you will trade seeds with me when I finally get some ripe tomatoes! I am growing about 30 varieties.

It has a very good tomato flavor. Not too sweet. Good combination of solid, meaty tomato with plenty of juice.

They are 83 days from planting and 155 days from the start of seed.

Thanks Mim. I have been waiting for the feedback to start coming in on Solar Flare. Looks like a real beauty queen, and taste good too! Perfect! Sounds like I'll be ordering seeds when Brad gets them in again.
