Carolyn - I tried to jump in on another Brandywine thread and it became obvious that I didn't belong there, so I'll try a new one. I got the seed for these in a trade. I had some doubts that they were Brandywine OTV, but now I think they really are. Your opinion please.

John, I find it very difficult ( impossible?) to ID any variety just with a picture and especially if the seeds were acquired in a trade.

What you do show is PL foliage, which is correct, I can't estimate fruit size, they should be in the one # range, the color and shape is about right and there should be 2-3 fruits in a cluster, which I can't see either.

So your call on this one. ( smile).

For those wondering why I was asked the question:

Thanks Carolyn. You understood exactly why I asked the question. This particular one is probably only a 1/2 pound. This ones I harvested earlier were very close to 1 pound. I'm declaring victory.
