Hello
La brandywine rouge est à feuille normale, c'est sa caractéristique d'origine... Mais il parait que l'originale est assez rare...

Red Brandywine – indeterminate, red fruited, medium to medium large fruit, slightly oblate shape, uniform ripening, some slight ribbing, fairly crack tolerant, regular leaf, juicy, consistently high yields, well balanced fine flavor.
History: Red Brandywine first appeared in the 1984 yearbook, but was a mis-listing of the pink potato leaf variety from Ben Quisenberry ("Brandywine" itself). There was, and continues to be, different usages of color when referring to tomatoes – for example, some seed savers list pink tomatoes as red, others list pink tomatoes as purple. ALL listings in the Tomatoes: Red category of the SSE yearbooks prior to 1988 (whether listed as Brandywine or Red Brandywine) were of the pink potato leaf variety.
The first listing of the red, regular leaf, authentic strain of Red Brandywine was in 1988 – listed by Steve Miller, who got the variety from Tom Hauch of Heirloom Seeds. (In his seed catalog, Tom states that this tomato originated with Chester County, Pennsylvania farmers in 1885). From my review of all of the SSE yearbooks, it is clear that many listings under Red Brandywine were, and still are, a mis-listing of Brandywine (the pink potato leaf tomato). Though there are often 20 or more listings of Red Brandywine in some yearbooks, no more than 12 listings are the regular leaf, red, authentic variety -–the rest are misplaced listings of Brandywine (the pink potato leaf one). To make matters worse, improper seed saving has led to the recent appearance of a red, potato leaf variety that is probably a selection from a cross or a mislabeling of some other variety. Thus the Brandywine story continues to become more convoluted all of the time.
Apparemment il traine de la brandywine appelée red mais qui n'en est pas....
Bref, comme toujours, c'est pas si simple
