Cherry Tomato 'Koralik'

  • Product number: 291431
  • Origin: South America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, also known as L. esculentum

A delicious cherry tomato, hailing from a trusted Polish tradition! Notable for its very early harvest and enormous production! The 2 cm small fruits ripen almost simultaneously on the truss (6-8 tomatoes per truss), which makes it possible to harvest the entire truss. The taste is delightfully sweet with sufficient contrasting aromas. The plant remains low and spreads wide, ensuring each truss receives good light. The susceptibility to Phytophthora is very low!

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 accordingly given a slightly different name. Some are even original, wild species. Most taste extra sweet, 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
