The largerst mater yet!

Somehow, I was expecting the largest mater to come from ether one of the Brandywines (Sudduth or Cowlick's) - nope, not exactly...

Bull's Heart - 1.9lbs, just missed the 2lbs mark by less than an ounce :twisted: From the lowest cluster as well...

Last year, largest one from Bull's Heart was 24oz. Will be eaten at dinner today :lol:

With the super-twin configuration, it REALLY is reminiscent of a giant heart, isn't it? I'm seeing a lot of those too.
Enjoy!

P.S. Here's one of my Bull's Heart from the seeds you gave me. The point on the one to the right is almost an afterthought. :lol:

The other ones are in the Sunny Meadow -- more open space but perhaps not as rich soil, and cooler than the protected, but crowded New Tomato Bed. Can't wait to try them! 8)

P.P.S. Here's a super-twin Black Plum:

Odd looking but tasty looking. I believe that's a keeper my friend. :D

Here is a Giant Syrian which I believe I got from from D_V (sorry can't remember at this time too much black cherry vodka and tonic :oops: )
it is a bit tore up but it is huge, I found it this morning and thought it was 2 grown into one. But while taking the pic I saw that it was a single tomato.

Apple - glad to see you growing Bull's Heart, I think you will like it! Amazing how nature sometimes plays around, creating some of the most amazing shapes and sizes!

Gixx - lol, cold beer for me today! Got to stay cool, thermometer showing 104F. Nice size on that Giant Syrian, but nope, not from me... Don't forget to take a pic before you eat it!

Regards,
D

Wow, what a 'mater. I don't think they make sandwich bread that big. Thanks for sharing the picture.

Nice one DV! I've got a super-bloomer just starting but it looks like it will get huge.
