We are both working hard on that, Spud is buried in paper work at the moment, I think he needs a nice lookin secretary myself...hehehe.

Michael Andersson of Sweden has a different PL version of Black Krim, which he just calls Black Potato Leaf. Unfortunately I'm unable to post direct links to the page, but it is here under "Purple/black": www.tomatsidan.se/ .

Gunnar, Thanks for the heads up on the Black Potato Leaf PL variant that Michael Andersson in Sweden has has. i used to have seeds but will have to get a replacement order from him.
I'm also interested in getting seeds for all those beautiful striped ones you posted pics of, especially the dark red ones. Do they have names yet??
I see I already sent you seeds from Flathead Monster and Craig's Potato Leaf heart shape in April, 2010
thanks again, keep in touch
Best regards, Spud

Update: I seeded this baby, not many seeds, very solid, but it had to be the best orange tomato I ever ate. It tasted like a real GREAT pink. Not just good for an orange, good for any tomato.

Speaking of pink, here is the latest in my Flathead row, all my Flatheads are either pink or orange, but I am not complaining these are the tastiest orange tomatoes I have ever eaten, and the pink is no slouch either!!! Here is the latest Flathead monster orange, a whopping 3 pounder!!!

Here's my Flathead Monster. I haven't tasted it yet. My orange one was by far one of the best tomatoes I ever ate.

Here is the orange Flathead monster in its natural habitat,usually found on a giant BLT, it adapts very well to the classic Italian sub. Again, this tomato has taken top place in this years taste test, it is like no orange we have ever tasted, Mom says "Spud is truly a man that knows what a good tomato should taste like, tell him I said so". So here it is without further ado, Flathead Monster Orange!!

Hey, Darth-my Flathead Monster Orange was very tasty. What do your leaves look like? Mine looked intermediate PL when the plants were small. I'll have to look at them more closely.

Darth,
I dont see any genoa salami or provolone cheese on that beauty !!! Looks like beef bologna on the bottom.....yuck !!
Nice mater though !! Mom has excellent tastes in tomato flavors !!
Its a good idea to give each FM colored mater a specific name like you did , i,e FM Orange and FM Pink and FM Brick Red. Looks like there are 3 different color segregations.
Spud

Unfortunately I'm unable to post direct links to the page, but it is here under "Purple/black": www.tomatsidan.se/ . Looks like another good tomato source. I e-mailed Micheal but no-reply yet, I wanted to try the Black krim Select, and the PL Black krim, wanted to know how much US cash to send, I don't know the tranfer rate.
