Cherry tomato 'Pendolino' F1

This is an improved cross of the Vesuvio Piennolo cherry tomato type. It is a tomato type cultivated in the southern region of Campania, around Vesuvius. It is one of the oldest and most distinctive varieties grown in that region. The tomatoes have an elongated, oval shape, and a pointed tip (spongillo). 'Pendolino' yields an abundance of 20-30g fruits with a very good flavor for eating fresh, but also for making a delicious soup or sauce. They are hung in large bunches, sliced, and preserved in jars. In the Netherlands, we might be able to approximate the flavor by mixing plenty of lava meal into the soil... more info:

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 varieties. Most taste extra sweet; a few have a sweet-sour taste. Cherry tomatoes are closest to the original varieties, which is perhaps why they are generally more resistant to the dreaded potato blight.
