Re: Thorburn's terra cotta tomato
I've read about people getting maybe two or three different shapes from this tomato, some may have been crossed or ?? I do know that it was associated with William Woys Weaver, and for me, that is a severe negative in so far as accurate information about the tomato from sources that use his information.
It its self, may be a good tomato, but the back story may be suspect.

Together, trees make an ecosystem that tempers the extremes of heat & cold, stores lots of water, & makes a lot of humidity. In this environment, trees can live to be very old. To get to this point, the community must remain intact no matter what.
