Lycopersicon 'Black Russian'

Description:
A Russian heirloom with mahogany red fruits where the color catches the sun’s heat creating larger, sweeter, and ripe fruit sooner than red types growing in the same region. Four ounce round smooth fruits possesses a unique exceptional sweet taste with spicy and smoky undertones that are enhanced when dried. We had no disease problems and fruits were almost blemish free. Heavy producer and early! Black Russian is a must for black tomato fans and those liking complex flavors in their tomatoes. Prune only to promote air circulation as production will continue throughout summer. One customer said she didn't like this variety as 'the taste is too intense'! Like that's a bad thing....
