Unique and tasty,

"An amazing plant.
Starting from seed, some succumbed to disease, but the survivors were more tolerant to the local climate afterward.
Doesn't require much nitrogen, but it greedily-feeds on both phosphorus and potassium. Best to compost, though, for flavor.
A good candidate for supercropping (crushing the stems so they grow back more robust), the fruit on the supercropped stems grew to mythic proportions while retaining flavor.
Easy to grow for the novice, but good enough for any table. Should be more popular than it is, in my opinion."

"Fifty-five years ago, in our garden in Barboursville, WV, my father and I grew Mortgage Lifter tomatoes. They are, by far, the most delicious tomato I have ever eaten. I am delighted to know that I again can grow these delicious tomatoes and enjoy their flavor."
