#MyTomatoes Part 8 ...a few years ago, I was given a cocktail tomato that wasn't just good—no, it was better...😊 ...a classic case of “the name says it all”—after all, this little love apple is actually called “Besser” 😳 ...it’s most likely a historic South Baden variety from the Freiburg area that was already being grown before 1900. However, a fully documented breeding history doesn’t seem to have survived. It’s a hardy cocktail tomato from the Freiburg region. SC Freiburg may not (yet) be playing in the Champions League 😉, but this little flavor bomb certainly is! It produces up to 15 bright red cherry tomatoes, weighing about 15 to 30 grams each, on long clusters. The variety impresses with a very sweet, fruity flavor and ripens particularly early. It’s ideal for growing because it’s hardy and well-suited for home gardens or open-field cultivation...

Hallo patronbernard, das ist ja mal eine interessante Sorte! Da ich ursprünglich (vor über 50 Jahren) aus Freiburg stamme, wäre ich sehr dankbar, wenn du ein paar Sämchen für mich am Ende der Saison übrig hättest. Dann könnte sie schauen, ob es ihr nicht auch in der Eifel gefällt! LG Kunsthexe

... Ist doch super! ... Da ich sehr vergesslich bin 🙈, macht es Sinn, mich am Ende der Saison daran zu erinnern...
