Gorgeous! I was looking for this variety at my local nursery, where it was advertised. However, it was a grafted variety and $17.99 for a gallon sized, so I passed on it.

Don't have it ...... yet.

Anyone care to report on taste?

I have not had a ripe one yet. I tried one that was about 3oz though. Can't say for sure but I think they are going to be very tart. Not complaining though. I have been looking for a tart tomato for pickling. Never though I would find one so pretty.

I think I'm the only one growing this one.lol

Talk about missingtheobvious.lol I guess I should have taken a look around before posting today. Indigo Rose is a beautiful looking tart tomato.

Like the poster in the other thread though. I can't tell when they are ripe either. They turn purple in sunlight not because they are ripe. On top of that. To this point they are all hard no matter how long they have been on the vine.

When I was in my late 30s or early 40s I realized I consistently missed things that should have been obvious -- and in fact were obvious to everyone else. (It took me that long to realize because ... well ... I miss the obvious.)

I was in a weird mood the day I signed up for GW. But I was right in that it's a unique user-name.
