Marvelous Flavor, June 29, 2008
Submitted by TomatoMan1 from Southwest Texas
"A neighbor was given some Italian Ice plants by a master gardener. She planted hers, had an extra plant and gave it to me. The deer ate hers, so the only response I have to offer is from my lone plant. It grew slower than other cherry tomato plants I raised and produced fruit later. I didn't baby it like most of my tomatoes, so the review probably would have been better if I had. We started harvesting fruit this past week and were pleasantly surprised. What a great refreshingly sweet taste. I sell tomatoes each year, but these are not for sale!!"

Susceptible to Fusarium Wilt, June 5, 2008
Submitted by CoralB from NC
"Unlike the reviewer above I did not have any problem starting the plant from seed. Now that they have been in my garden for 6 weeks, however, they are dying from fusarium wilt. Few burpee tomato plants are clear about resistance to fusarium wilt. Italian Ice definately is not resistant. Since most of us do not have enough land to leave planting beds fallow for 4-6 years, I would skip this one is FW is a problem in your area."

Slowest growing tomato, May 31, 2008
Submitted by kcragg from Jacksonville, Florida
"I planted these seeds along with a type of red cherry tomato at the same time. Two months later the Italian Ice tomato plants are only 1 inch tall, but the red cherry tomato plants are over one foot tall with blooms already. It has now been about 3 months since I planted these seeds and the Italian Ice plants are still alive, but still have barely grown past the 1 inch mark."
