Small Red Cherry tomato on Indeterminate plants. Description From the 2018 Seed Swap. This page will be updated as we find out more information.

Tomato Polish Linguisa
Red elongated plum shaped open pollinated tomato on indeterminate plants. Description From the 2018 Seed Swap, the description on the web sounds much like Red Buffalo Horn, a paste tomato.

2018 Update

That brings to 161 the number listed. 2018 has been a somewhat peculiar year, the tomatoes are early because of the weather. Which is probably a good job because I didn’t do much in the way of thinning…… Continue reading 2018 Update
