One of Tom's tomatoes with purple-blushed shoulder

Unfortunately the blush is faint enough that it's hard to see clearly. The dark spots are a purple blush.

I tried embedding it inline, but the software that renders these pages does not like URLs that don't look like something dot jpg.

The link did not work for me, sorry.

No of course it didn't. Bug in the site software (what can I say...I'm on a shoe-string budget).

Let's try this:



The blushing is faint, and hard to see because CCDs are not as sensitive as human eyes, but it's there.

Only got 4 seeds out of it but I am processing them to send when they are ready.

Atash, which number is that? 55, 24, 10, 9?

BLUSH. I thought it was #11, but if you don't think that was one of the purple-blushed maybe it was its neighbor #10. I'll double-check. I was in a hurry planting them, and only gave them 18 inches spacing between plants, so they're a bit crowded.

And contrary to what I said, it only had 3 seeds; I recounted this morning. It was almost seedless; the fruit had negligible seed chambers and was almost solid. I wonder if it is parthenocarpic.

That is number 10 2-28-09. I double planted 10 into cell 11 also, which is serendipitously great because it just gave a few more seedlings of Green Zebra crossed to Blue P-20.
