That does NOT look like the tomato I grow known as 'Dora'. Mine came from grower Dar Jones at 'Selected Plants' in Alabama. He states that it is a cross of Cherokee Purple and Brandywine...I have been growing it every year since 2009.

Check out this link; scroll towards the bottom for a pic of THIS 'Dora', which is the one I grow for the reason Mr. Jones stated: FLAVOR!

Oh, you cannot beat a cross between Brandywine and Cherokee Purple for flavor!

I almost always grow Cherokee Purple, and/or other varieties that have those genetics in their mix.

In the past I’ve grown one called ‘Heirloom Marriage Genuwine’ which was really good. It’s a cross between Brandywine and Costoluto Genovese.

Quite the ‘looker’ and the flavor and production were great.

‘Heirloom Marriage Cherokee Carbon’ was terrific, too. A cross between Cherokee Purple and Carbon.

Really tasty, that one! :)
