Almost all of mine are up.

I just planted my Captain Lucky, I germinated them in a baggie, so expect them up soon.

As of yet, Pink Berkeley Tie Dye hasn't come up. Hmmm.

I don't need to get fancy here in Miami. I just squeeze a tomato into a pot of dirt, cover with a little more dirt, and stand back.

It is a cross between I believe Anna Russian and an unknown black.Came from a friend of mine Dean Slater. According to Dean some turn out hearts and some paste.Also says it is very tasty.
