I think I tried one of these from a friend's garden quite a while ago, don't remember how they tasted, I just loved the look.
The Fireworks they have here is not what I have. There are two varieties called Firework. Mine is from a German tomato which is called Feuerwerk which translated is Firework. But to buy seeds for this you will need to search for Feuerwerk. I only learned this recently as someone was having trouble finding it. It was sold to me as Firework. The name is correct, but strictly speaking should be referred to as the German Feuerwerk.Lonesomedave wrote:awrighty then..........just a warning....i have never done business with them and don't know if they are good or not....but they look REAL good, and i intend to to buy some things from them next year (including fireworks tomatoes....)

ps...and they sell either seeds or plants for most varieties
I don't find these acidic at all. In fact I have a friend who had stomach cancer and cannot eat tomatoes because of the acidity. But he can eat these with no problem at all. I have been giving him these tomatoes for 3 years now.Duh_Vinci wrote:This one is certainly interesting one, great looking and there may be indeed few strains of it... As the Incredible Seeds store refers to is as acidic and fruity. I can't do to well with very acidic varieties, so if yours has more sweetness, and you saving seeds this year, I would be happy to offer something tasty in return for 2017...?

I have not saved seeds for few years, so how about going back to the origins? These Feuerwerk were originally brought from Russia and introduced to wider population by Reinhard Kraft https://tomaten.bplaced.net/Tomatenfotos/anbau-2004.htmTomatoGirl wrote: I don't find these acidic at all.

I'd do a trade with you if you like. What do you have?
I don't have any seeds right now, so it will have to be when I dry this seasons seeds.Duh_Vinci wrote:I have not saved seeds for few years, so how about going back to the origins?

The freshest seeds I can offer would be Reinhard Kraft's Chocolate Heart, Purple Heart or Green Heart (very few seeds left). Outside of his list, just what's growing this year (will be saving some seeds):
Bulls Heart Pink
Cherokee Purple
Cherokee Chocolate Heart
Grubb's Mystery Green
Spudakee (PL version of Cherokee Purple)
All of my other seeds are 5+ years old, will start re-growing them slowly going forward to re-stock.
