Chris Ukrainian in my garden has stripes, this year (like Green Zebra's stripes). I ate a ripe fruit, today, and it was very sweet (I think a lot of things are sweet around now; Early Girl F1 is, anyway).

This picture includes some of its fruits, which are red in real life (not pink as they appear in the picture):

It was sweet again yesterday; so, it wasn't just when I harvested it. Pretty good.

Vigorous Chris Ukrainian tomato with stripes

Here's my Chris Ukrainian tomato, so far, this year. This one is one of the more vigorous ones that should be true-to-type, rather than the cross or offtype I grew last year. I'm pretty excited to see the result. It's growing vigorously in the ground (and it grew vigorously in the greenhouse; not all the seedlings were as vigorous as this one; in fact, this was far and away the most vigorous of the Chris Ukrainian tomatoes that were in its cell; I just thinned it, today).

Argh! :) My Chris Ukrainian plant has striped fruits, again, this year, notwithstanding it's a vigorous one and the one last year wasn't. I'm guessing the seed I got is F2 hybrid seed instead of either F1 or heirloom. I better re-label the title thread.

The plant is large.

I better contact Sand Hill Preservation Center to let them know.

Edit: Okay, I sent them an email report.
