An heirloom from Irkutsk, Siberia. The 130g tomatoes are round & very uniform; the color is a wonderful deep blackish-chocolate brown. The flavour is as deep, sweet & rich as the colour. A unique salad tomato; the plants produce a large crop & early. (Cordon variety
- one stem grown by pinching off side-shoots as they appear, needs staking & tying in.) Tom says: We trial hundreds of new varieties every year in order to make sure only the very best varieties make it into our catalogue. The difference in flavours is incredible from savoury cooking tomatoes to pure sweetness for snacking & every conceivable flavour combination in between, we have something for every taste bud & growing situation.
