Is that Tasmanian Chocolate, TMTT? I wanted to ask you how they grew!
I love the name because I lived in Tassie many years ago. Is there a story behind the name?

Yep, that's it. Rosella Purple is in the pot next to it. They only grow about 3 feet tall but branch like mad, they're like little tomato trees! It's caged to help support the branches as the fruit can be quite heavy.
A lot of the Dwarf Tomato Project varieties were bred/selected in Australia so there are quite a few with Oz-related names. You can see all the varieties here - https://www.dwarftomatoproject.net/shop/

Thanks for the Link. Not seen that before.
I doubly like the Tas tom because its from the "Happy family".
