Originally from an Amish community near Lancaster, PA, Amish Paste is an incredibly productive variety with excellent flavor. Fruits make excellent sauces. They taste great off the vine as well.
Fruit shape shows variability in shape from elongated oxheart to plum. Indeterminate plants begin forming fruits late but consistently give until frost.

Nothing wrong with the seeds, but we had a very hot, early summer which limited the output of the plants.
