Rick, Gita and I have only one thing in common...........that would be the lack of leaves Doug Oster describes as those that should be tear drop with a solid unbroken edge of the Potato Top (Brandywine) associated.

All three of us appear to have different fruit. Looking closely at my plant pix you can see a leaf or two that the front part of the leaf looks like it may be closely related to the leaf Doug describes. My fruit looks like and is sized somewhat like the Brandywine I have grown in the past.

Blight is begining to hit my plant. Our area is having the worst blight year I have ever seen. Commercial growers are spraying fungicides every third day or so. Many gardeners have torn their plants out and sent them to the landfill. If I am lucky I will get three or four fruit off of this plant. My other plants are pretty well gone having given me a few ripe fruit.
