Long time no see everyone! I don't usually get on the forum unless it's gardening season or soon to be so.
I discovered this listing (see below) and my interest was piqued. I made sure to verify that these are tomatoes and not the commonly referred to tomatillo Itallian tomato tree variety.

As of right now I've got this listing on my EBay watch list and upcoming season radar to possibly try. I'm not a fan of taking the time to trellis much stuff and would likely let them sprawl their way across my back deck where they would get the most and beneficial light without lying all over the ground to rot and stay moist, where they shouldn't be when ripening pretty much lol.
If anyone has grown these and has any photos they could share, or info, I'd love to hear it. Hubby is all about trying new things when it comes to food in the garden when they're familiar to him (I try to give different things a try each year to see what I can push the envelope to get to grow in our zone (I think it's 6B or 7, we're in NE Ohio).
TIA and it's nice to be back for the upcoming gardening season!

It's marketing hype. The listing also confuses a rather ordinary potato-leaved indeterminate heirloom tomato variety with Italian Tree Tomatoes which are not really tomatoes but a totally different variety of plant that does not taste like a tomato at all. Italian Tree Tomatoes are what are grown at Walt Disney World.
