Good heavens all these new names! Maybe he's hiding out with Miss Scarlet in the Kitchen With the Knife
Let's ask @Tormato he should know.

Yes thank you! He has helped me!

Now you have all of us wanting to know what the outcome of this “mystery” is. Do tell! I recently acquired seeds for Miss Scarlet and will be growing it this year. I’m “dying” to find out about Professor Plum.

While growing out Miss Scarlet in the Kitchen with a Knife, two of us got plum tomatoes rather than the round shape. One was called Professor Plum in the Dining room with a Knife. So the elusive Professor Plum is an unstable plump plum.

Are there any other “clue themed” tomatoes? I have the Miss Scarlett in the kitchen but now I’m wondering if there are others besides these two?

I recieved a few seeds last year and grew 2 plants for the professor plum. Unfortunately both produced red round globe shaped tomatoes that cracked easily. Both were grown in a 35 gal mineral tub with a good layer of mulch to help retain moisture levels. Am in central MO zone 6b/6a.

Professor Plum was, and the last of the seeds this year are, released as a first generation of the plum-shaped tomato that originated from a Miss Scarlet In The Kitchen With The Knife grow out. It is nowhere near being stable. I don't know if there are any successive generations of seeds producing a plum-shaped tomato, out there. Perhaps I'll start some of my earliest MSITKWTK saved seeds to see what shows up.

A Colonel Mustard (no room or weapon, yet) is somewhat in the works, as is a Mr Green. I don't know if I want to go with a Dr Orchid, who has a PhD in plant toxicology!

Finding suitable prospects/suspects in my garden is fairly easy. Naming them is far more...

































...wrenching.
