To be honest, if this is truly an adapted variety of Brad's Black Heart, then I will be only happy. Firstly, because buying Brad's Black Heart tomato seeds is a whole problem, but the Black Heart of America variety can now be purchased in any store or online without any problems and the price is low. The main thing is that the stated characteristics of the Black Heart of America tomato correspond to reality. I have already bought two bags for myself and will definitely check this variety this year. I’ve even sowed it for seedlings.

Awesome tomato. Large fleshy fruits. In the cross section, a ripe tomato of deep raspberry color. Very tasty. Formed into two stems. Grew up in a greenhouse. Last year I planted it in the greenhouse, but in the greenhouse the yield is many times greater.
