Please ID my Tomatoes!

 I have some tomato plants that are doing exceptionally well.  The seeds came
from the Hampshire Potato Day.

Every year I have trouble with labels being lost or forgotten or just total
mislabelling.  So this year I made an extra special effort and labelled as
soon as planted with proper printed labels.

The really good tomatoes are labelled "Nicholovana".

Google says nu-uh.  Not a sausage.  Or a tomato.

Can anyone suggest in what way I've mislabelled my tomatoes this year
(Perhaps Mr Nicholovana supplied the seeds!), and suggestions for what they
possibly /should/ be labelled as.

(All I can say is that they appaer to be potato-leaved variety.  Hopefully
 I'll be able to comment on the fruit later in the year!)

I couldn't find that name in the Seed Saver's Exchange online yearbook
either.
If they're potato leaved, they're probably not a hybrid, so keep them a few
feet (at least) away from other tomatoes and save some seeds! (Warning-it's
addictive).

Not much chance of keeping anything separate in our rather overpacked space!
But I did notice it's a typo - it's nicholcovana, with an extra C.  Still
doesn't help, nothing showing up.  :-(

 

This is a bit weird but there's someone in Hampshire breeding Cocker
Spaniels with the kennel name Covana.  Their name isn't Nichols but it
made me wonder if someone called Nichols in a house called Covana
supplied your tomato seeds!  If so only the person who sold them to you
will be able to tell you.

It was on the seed swap table, so very possibly someone's name.  Annoying,
though.  :-)

I'll keep an eye on it and see how it goes.
