In late February or early March I purchased some plum tomatoes at a local supermarket. I saved some of their seeds, and sowed them indoors on March 17. It took a full 2 weeks for the seeds to germinate, and the seedlings have been growing very slowly ever since. They have most unusual leaves, that don't look at all like normal tomato leaves. What do I have here? I began transplanting seedlings this week, but am now wondering how long a growing season this variety needs? Is it worth my effort to do any more transplanting? I'm attaching a photo.

In comparison, the partly visible plant to the left in the photo is a transplanted seedling of Mortgage Lifter. Its seeds were sown on April 2 and they germinated in 5 days. Those plants were transplanted on April 23. Most of them are now 5" tall.
Thank you.
