Medium-sized Tomato 'Bloody Butcher'

  • Product number: 293170
  • Origin: Central America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum

What an appealing name for an old, historic variety! The plant height is 2m, early ripening. The fruits, dark red inside and out, taste exceptionally good: sweet and aromatic. Fruit weight approximately 100 grams.
If you often grow your tomatoes in the same place, for example in a greenhouse (or small greenhouse)? Then diseases can develop in the soil, which rootstocks are resistant to, and thus grafting is recommended:
for grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As a tool, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.

This group of tomatoes are of a size between cherry tomatoes and beefsteak tomatoes: medium size, in other words. Each has its own unique character. The climbing varieties ripen somewhat later than the compact varieties and are therefore more successful under rain protection: a lean-to, greenhouse, or growing tunnel.

Names:
Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum
Dutch: Tomaat
