Roma Tomato 'San Marzano Nano'

  • Product number: 292010
  • Origin: Central America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, also known as L. esculentum

ORGANICALLY GROWN SEEDS! Produces very elongated, red fruits. In Italy, this is a popular variety for pasta sauce, juices, and soups. The deliciously sweet taste is also appreciated as a salad tomato. Due to its compact growth, this variety is also suitable for growing in pots, and the harvest is relatively early.
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 diseases, and grafting is therefore recommended:
For grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As a tool, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting Clip 1.5 mm.

Elongated, sweet tomatoes with a lot of flesh. In subtropical countries, this is the variety for processing into juices, soups, ketchup, dried tomatoes, etc. Tip: freeze Roma tomatoes with skin on.

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