I grew Persimmon one year, being true to type, and I saved seeds. The saved seed produced an indeterminate RL pink heart, with an overabundance of very long weeping branches. I picked about 40 ripe fruit, and there were about another 40+ green ones that were lost when the 1st expected killing frost happened. I've heard that a cross of a beefsteak producing a 1st generation heart is genetically impossible.
The following year produced both pink and gold/orange hearts. Angel Heart was one of them, distinguished by many of the hearts having "innie" belly button blossom ends, a long tapered tomato ending with an indentation. I've never seen another tomato that consistently produces such a heart shape. The plants had a normal number and length of branches.
Medusa also came out of the saved seed of the pink heart.

Re: Lettuces
The various lettuce, arugula, frisée, spinach are firing on all cylinders now. Been handing out lettuce to the neighbors and eating all we can.
