Linda's Faux
Does anyone know of Linda's Faux? I heard about in passing and am curious to know more about it.

Gleckler Seedman has it; just got some from him.
"Indeterminate, potato leaf, late. Heavy producer of 8-20 oz red beefsteaks. Excellent flavor." Last edited by kygreg; January 29, 2011 at 10:08 PM. Reason: added info |

Here's a link to Dave's Garden Plantfiles concerning the variety. Linda sent me seeds which I grew out and to me the PL version had better production and larger fruit than it's brother the original Akers West Virginia which is Regular leaf. Last year Linda's grow out of the variety produced a dwarf plant. Will grow out this year and see what we come up with. Ami
