The 852 Myers (see Myersbros. diary from 2010) did it for me, produced my 738.5 Wagler in 2011 (see my 2011 diary), excellent color. The 738.5 Wagler (which is 852 Myers x self) seems to have the same potential, look at the 521 Toftness (FlatNorm diary 2013)...this fruit grew on a 150 sqft plant. Imagine what fruit the 738.5 could produce on a 400 sqft plant. The 738.5 is for free (means for a bubble with postage), and if Curt Myers still has some 852 seeds, he might also be happy to send you some of them. No need to buy seeds for what you want to achieve, better spend your money on soil prep.

I have not harvested seeds from mine yet, it is still a porch decoration right now. It is a second generation Howard Dill winner. Beautiful color and great shape. Plant was very hardy and both of it's parents are 900+ pounds. You can check it out in my diary. I will be happy to send seeds this winter when they are ready
