The really good tomatoes are labelled "Nicholovana".

Google says nu-uh. Not a sausage. Or a tomato.

Can anyone suggest in what way I've mislabelled my tomatoes this year
(Perhaps Mr Nicholovana supplied the seeds!), and suggestions for what they
possibly /should/ be labelled as.

(All I can say is that they appaer to be potato-leaved variety. Hopefully
I'll be able to comment on the fruit later in the year!)

Probably a red herring, but there is a D Nicholovana involved in the development of the purple tomato, (he's co-author of a paper on them)
