Sorry, I don't know what you have. What I do know is the Druzba I got from
the same place does not appear to be a Druzba. It too is taking a hit from
blight (but then so are most of my tomatoes-this has been a summer from hell
as far as tomatoes & disease are concerned. For what it is worth, I have
had good luck with TGS regarding their seeds.
