market regardless of price.

Bonnie Best. It is a wonderful yielder and the only extra 
early Tomato that is of a deep globe shape and good bright 
red color. Very solid fruits and few seeds; does not crack, 
making it a wonderful shipper. The vine is of spreading 
growth with good foliage to protect the fruit. Supply of seed
