Wow!!! All I can say is one slice of this big plum type tomato and you will be hooked!! They are far and away much better than San Marzano or Roma. Nice tomato with a great flavor which is the right balance of acidic and sweet.And the fine flavor lingers for a while.I am confident they would make a fine pasta sauce or salsa and also a good topping for homemade pizza.This is what an Italian tomato should taste like.

Kevin Sounds like a great replacement for me to replace the San Marzano I have been trying to grow for the last few seasons with not very good results. Were can I get seed from?

Penny it sure is a good one.I have not had a paste tomato yet that had such great flavor.
Jersy. I can save seeds.However I have not bagged any so there is a chance for a cross.Also Dan McMurray(Grunt)may have some.He post on Homegrown Goodness.I got my seeds from him and he highly recommended them.
