Golden Jubilee is a heirloom breed, so, I believe these plants from seeds I collected should “grow true”, correct? That's my understanding.
One thing that you do have to watch for though is accidental cross pollination if you grew other varieties nearby.

If the flowers cross pollinated, would that change the fruits’ qualities on the cross pollinated “original” plant?
That is, to use a different example: Let’s say I deliberately cross pollinated some Cherry Tomato flowers with pollen from Mortgage Lifter flowers. Would the tomatoes produced on the Cherry Tomato plant be altered from normal Cherry Tomato fruits?
