My Rebel Alliance is the tallest of the tomatoes I have in 22 Earthboxes. It is Potato Leafed. I have a second plant that I could put out if the others recommend it. KBX & GGWT are looking good in the ground. I have six varieties in Texas Tomato Cages with extensions growing in the ground, (Big Beef, Creole, Brandy Boy and BrandyHeritage, plus GGWT & KBX. Looking for a great harvest,

I don't think that Rebel Alliance is supposed to be potato leafed.

I just got a note today from Heritage Seed Market that their seeds for this were untrue and giving PL plants that were not multi-flora with brown heart shaped fruits.

Rebel Alliance is a cross of the 2 stable regular leafed varieties, Zluta Kytice and Not Purple Strawberry. For sure there is no potato leaf in the variety. What you have won't be Rebel Alliance.

Well I got my Rebel Alliance from 2 places - One was Heritage Seed Market. The other may have been in a trade. So, I'll keep one and rouge out the other and put in a spare plant. Maybe Altai Orange

What I was calling Brandy Heritage is actually BrandyMaster.

Gotcha. How does that one compare to Brandy Boy? Brandy Boy has been my winner for big delicious fruit, combined with fighting off the leaf diseases really well.

Mark,
I haven't tried BrandyMaster before. I just had a spot with the 8' Texas Tomato Cages and thought BrandyMaster might work well there.
