Opalka
| 8 | 11" | 11" x 11" | Planted seed indoors 4/6/13

The crinkly foliage is normal and not an indication of plant disease. Polish heirloom brought by the Opalka family to Amsterdam, NY
When the best-looking tomatoes are fully ripe, squeeze the gelatinous seed mass into a jar, fill it with water and shake well. In a day or so, rinse the seeds through a strainer and dry them on a plate for a couple of weeks, or until fully dry. Store in a cool, dry spot.

Black Krim
| 10 | 11" | 11" x 11" | Planted seeds 4/6/2013 indoors
Planted out 5/30
warns that most people wait too long to harvest their heirloom tomatoes. Krims should be harvested when half green and still firm. They are dead ripe and perfectly delicious at that stage. If you wait till they are fully purple, you will not be able to get them from garden to table intact (to say nothing of market) and they will disintegrate like a hunk of road-kill. Krims are strikingly iridescent purple on the outside, usually with dark green-black shoulders and noticeable catfacing. Interiors are part black, too, with an unusual juicy yet meaty taste and texture, described as having a smoky flavor like a good single malt scotch.
Heirloom Krim hails from Krymsk on the Black Sea in Russia
