About this variety

Machine-translated, may contain errors.

A true wild tomato (currant tomato) with countless tiny, pea sized fruits, robust, undemanding and astonishingly resistant to late blight. It sprawls lavishly and bushily, is hard to keep in check and readily self seeds, but in return it bears from early on until late into autumn. The mini fruits are a snacking pleasure straight from the plant and perfect for children in the garden. Easy to care for and rewarding, even in a pot on the balcony. Open pollinated and self sustaining.

Tiny, but enormous in flavour, intensely sweet with a wild, concentrated tomato aroma that opens up in one small burst.
