Superb flavor, not bland at all, seems more consistent in flavor than many of the other bicolors. Low-avg production for me, so I usually grow two plants because taste is so good.

Great taste and texture but production was spotty at best for us last year, but I'm chalking that up to growing conditions here last year. This is definately one we're going to try again.

A beautiful and tasty relative of the famous Brandywine.This tomato is the result of a cross pollination that happened by accident in Craig Lehoullier's garden.Thus,the name,Lucky Cross.
This bi-color has the beauty of the bi-color,with the creamy texture and unique flavor of the Brandywine.The skins are thin and the tomato bruises easily,like most bi-colors,so there is very little storage time.It is delicate and will not withstand shipping for much distance.For farmer's market use,don't stack over 2 deep.
It is one of the most flavorful bi-colors I've ever tasted and is now a favorite.
Craig is offering seeds in the SSE Yearbook.
