Thanks for the info! I can't wait for a tomato sandwich! I didn't realize
it took 80 days to mature, I was kinda hoping for something between the
early girl (55 days) and the big 'uns (85 days).

Someone asked about Box Car Willie. It's a good one that will do well in
most areas of the country. About 80 days to maturity with 6-10 ounce red
fruit. It's an exceptionally abundant producer with a fine taste and
produces over a long season. I've grown it in zone 7b with good results and
an organic market grower I know has had excellent results growing this as a
main season variety for market.
