Heart-shaped tomato 'JOlie Coeur' / 'H 34 Red'

  • Product number: 291425
  • Origin: South America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, or also L. esculentum

This American variety produces heart-shaped fruits weighing 50-100 g, each fruit ending in a playful point. The color is dark red with indigo-blue shoulders; sometimes the fruits are entirely blue (the more sun, the bluer). The blue coloring is caused by the presence of healthy anthocyanin. The juicy fruits taste excellent!
Do you often grow your tomatoes in the same place, for example in a greenhouse? Then diseases can develop in the soil, which rootstocks are resistant to, making grafting advisable:
for grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As an aid, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.

The smallest tomatoes in our assortment are called cherry tomatoes or ping-pong tomatoes, depending on their size. Some varieties are elongated or heart-shaped and are given a slightly different name accordingly. Some are even original, wild species. Most taste extra sweet, while a few have a sweet and sour taste. Cherry tomatoes are closest to the original species, which is perhaps why they are generally more resistant to the dreaded potato blight.

Names:
Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, or also L. esculentum
