Hello Walter, 

Thank you for thinking of the CCE - Dutchess County Master Gardener Volunteers for your gardening questions and concerns.

Unfortunately, because there are numerous tomato plants, which includes hybrids, heirloom, determinate and indeterminate varieties, it would be impossible for us to identify this plant for you.  

It is always fun to nurture these "volunteers", wondering what you will get.  I hope you enjoyed the fruits of your labor.

Thank you again and please feel free to contact us in the future.
