Description
Dwarf Scarlet Heart originated from a cross between Anna Banana Russian and Roza Vetrov made by Patrina Nuske Small in 2007 named Nosey F1. Dwarf Scarlet Heart is a mid-season regular leaf dwarf producing abundant small to medium 4-6 oz tasty meaty red hearts. Plants are compact at around 3 ft and have a wispy-leaf version of dwarf foliage so they are less dense than other project varieties. Dwarf Scarlet Heart was selected and named by project volunteer Linda Black. Photo credit: Victory seeds​
