Great germination rate. Put these in ground in March (Zone 10a) and they were the first to produce. They are still producing (August) and they are prolific. They are sweet but the skins are just the tiniest bit thick, at least I think so, most everyone else doesn't notice. This tomato plant will always have a place in my garden. Highly recommend

I got a LATE start with these this year (May in New England!) so I am pleased to see that the plants now have lots of flowers and even a few small tomatoes. We have had some very hot and humid weather but the plants look good. I should be getting a good crop toward the end of Aug, hopefully, and into Sept. I have been growing these for several years because they can be grown in containsers and because of their cold tolerance.
