Bloody Butcher tomato

This has been a favorite variety, this year. The fruits are fairly round and meaty (though they can get soft when ripened well). The plant is productive and not enormous. If you want a lot of salad-sized tomatoes in a small space, this would be a good variety. Fruits began ripening fairly early. It tastes good, but it's not my personal favorite (I can see how others might favor it, though).

I got one fruit that was a lot bigger than the others. It had lots of locules. I plan to grow it next year to see if it was a sport.

Re: Bloody Butcher tomato

The fruit with lots of locules ended up being a sport. Frittata Kitchen came from that.

Both Bloody Butcher and Frittata Kitchen produce throughout the season, but they don't have a big end-of-season harvest (in my garden, so far).
