Default Potato Leaf Elfie?

I have a friend who is looking for PL Elfie. He seems to think that was the original version. I only see RL mentioned. Have any of you had or heard of a PL Elfie?

Elfie may be RL from what I've read. Another orange, Elbe, is supposed to be PL. As a group, Tomatoville should be able to figure it all out.

Not a genius.



Just a mind like a tomato cage, that keeps most things in, a bit spills out, and dreading some day of over-fruiting where it all collapses.

Tomato cage minds are the best kind. I remember in detail everything I’ve ever grown myself. I’m sure it’s all I will remember someday.
Thank you for your great tomato memory

You’re brilliant! The gentleman’s handwriting is very difficult to read, but when you suggested Elbe, I read his letter again and it indeed does look like he is looking for Elbe! Is there anything in particular you are looking for? Happy to trade. Thanks so much.

It looks like two people are looking for Elbe.

PM me mailing addresses, and any other varieties you may be looking for.
