Comments on: Marianna’s Peace: Hanna’s Tomato Tastings 2006 http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/2006/09/mariannas-peace-hannas-tomato-tastings.html Gardening isn't a hobby, it is an obsession Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:52:05 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8 hourly 1 By: Joan http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/2006/09/mariannas-peace-hannas-tomato-tastings.html/comment-page-1#comment-5503 Joan Thu, 25 Sep 2008 05:40:54 +0000 http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/new/2007/07/mariannas-peace-hannas-tomato-tastings-2006.html#comment-5503 I have been enjoying Marianna's Peace for weeks now. My one and only plant has grown at least 10 feet and given me at least 45 tomatoes and still counting. All are at least 1.5 to two pounds each and delicious! All my neighbors are asking how I grew such fabulous tomatoes. I live in Southern California near the beach and just used compost in a raised bed. The tomatoes are very sweet with just a hint of acid. They are probably the best tomatoes I ever tasted. I am now saving the seeds. Remember the gestational period is about 85 days so plant early and enjoy. Joan I have been enjoying Marianna’s Peace for weeks now.

It was the russian soilders not the natzi's who came for marianna and her classmates. In case you have never herd the fact, the russians killed as high as 60 million mostley peasant farmers (christian people)condemned to siberian death camps. These farmers were self-reliant people who grew many varieties of tomatoes. In fact the many tomatoes that you grow today owe their origin to a once great people who were murdered. The hideous fact is stalin and his henchman were allies of the united states of america and great britain. The truth shall set you free. God bless!

It is huge, huge, huge. the tomatoes are as big as grapefruit. They are taking forever to ripen so I haven't tasted them yet. I must have 60 or more tomatoes one one plant. The plant is over 6 feet tall and 6 feet wide. I purchased a Marianna’s Peace tomato. It is huge, huge, huge. the tomatoes are as big as grapefruit.

Maybe the camera but if not, you need to let it ripen more on the vine. Way, way too early by that photo. Mine have always been very dark red in color. Marianna's is one of my all-time favorites. Take care, Doug Hi Hanna,

I just got some Marianna’s Peace seeds from Sorellina (YGG) who says that “she’s a monster of a plant” with fruit average 1.5 lbs.!

I was glad to find your review of this variety when I googled it, though!

Amy.
