I have never heard of Tomato variety Crystal. Is it a cherry tomato? Obviously it is being picked and eaten now, so it is fairly early.

They are F1 from T&M Cherry, excellent disease resistance, the Alsia Craigs alongside have a touch of blight. The fruits are uniform,spotless and have an old fashioned flavour. I've got them in and out of the GH. both are ripe.

Thanks for the info Merlin. I might give them a try next year.
