A strong, Russian traditional! This variety combines compact growth with an early harvest, which is quite unique for a "black" tomato. The substantial fruits (300-500g) beautifully color deep chestnut-brown with red and olive-green shoulders. The magnificent, full flavor is complex, intense, and mellow. It grows very well in pots.
Do you often grow your tomatoes in the same place, for example in a greenhouse? Then diseases can develop in the soil, which rootstocks are resistant to, and grafting is therefore recommended:
for grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As an aid, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.
The largest tomatoes in our assortment are called beefsteak tomatoes. This tomato gets its name from the larger amount of flesh (instead of juice). This applies to most varieties in this group, with a few exceptions such as the so-called stuffing tomatoes.
