Below is a link to Tania's page about Texas Star and if you look at seed availability there are two places offering it for 2013

Above is a Google search for it and several links to message sites, etc., that should give you information.

As to history, see what Tania has to say and it's a variety that was first listed with SSE in the mid-80's as she says. If it's important to know who first listed it I could take the time to look through some of my old SSE Yearbooks, but I don't have the time now.(smile)

To me it looks like one of the many, actually over 200 named gold/red bicolors, but there are some differences between some of them, and give us some feedback when you've grown it and tasted the fruits. And note the opinions of others at Tania's page as well.

Hope that helps

Carolyn
