    An improved version of fantastic. Main difference is slightly larger size. Round 8-10 ounce red fruit on vigorous indeterminate vine.

    I grew Super Fantastic for the first and last time last year in my garden. This tomato had no taste. It was super bland. Worse yet were the cracks that developed near the stem in every fruit. What a misnamed tomato, as it was neither super nor fantastic for me. I will not be trying to grow it again.
