This old variety from Naples produces a large harvest of aromatic, fleshy fruits, about 6 cm long. The harvest is fairly uniform, ideal if you want to make sauce or juice.

If you often grow your tomatoes in the same place, for example in a greenhouse (or mini-greenhouse), diseases can develop in the soil. Rootstocks are resistant to these, making grafting advisable:
for grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. We recommend these grafting clips as an aid: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.
Elongated, sweet tomatoes with lots of flesh. In subtropical countries, this type is used for processing into juices, soups, ketchup, dried tomatoes, etc. Tip: freeze Roma tomatoes with their skins on.
