Is Olena Ukrainian the same Tomato?
I'm growing it out this year.

I think they are different, based on the descriptions
and histories in Tania's TOMATObase:

Olena Ukrainian:

Oleyar's German:

Thanks very much for pointing me dice.

Why didn't I remember to check Tania's Tomato base?

I can see the difference in them after reading their descriptions.

Terry, I hope you didn't move! The seeds are the same ones I sent to Roscoe in NZ & Neil Lockhart a couple years ago. Hope they do good and somebody please send me some back if possible, especially if bagging blossoms, my stock is nearly GONE!

Hi Mark,
I can send you fresh seed ( less than 3 years old if you want some more) along with some others you may want to try.
I have a new laptop now and seem to have lost all my contact addresses so will need you to email me please.
Either that or if you're on Skype send me a contact name and I'll try and call you.
Cheers.
Rosco.

Same with you Pete!!!!!

Robin, I read what Tania had at her site and it's essentially correct with a couple of minor corrections needed.

Olena Ukrainian is one I introduced and it looks nothing like the pictures being shown here for Mark's variety.

I also got a good pepper from Olena via John Bartowski who was a neighbor and not an SSE member and listed it in the SSE YEarbook. I haven't looked in ages to see if it's still listed.

Well Carolyn,

I bookmarked your post above for future reference. I will be posting pictures of Olena's Ukrainian when I get mature fruit. Thanks for letting me know this.

The source for this seed is Sandhill Preservation.
