Description

Grows up to 2 meters high. Small, sweet aromatic fruits. Harvest relatively early and for a long time. Thin-skinned, glossy, purple-green, almost black when unripe. When ripe, it resembles a cherry - salmon-pink on the lower half and purple on the shoulder and cheeks, fruity, aromatic. The more sun this variety gets, the darker it becomes. As the calyx is protected from the sun, it remains pink and produces a beautiful star when harvested. High-yielding, can easily be grown on multiple shoots. Like many other Antho varieties, it is not 100% stable.

Growing tips

Optimum germination temperature 20 - 25 °C, germination period 8 - 14 days. Tomatoes require a lot of light, warmth, water and nutrients. They are grown from seed on the windowsill from March. The seedlings should be planted deep, up to the first leaf base, so that the root system is enlarged by additional lateral roots. Unlike most other crops, tomatoes should always be planted in the same place. Under-sowing with low-growing plants is a good option. Due to their determinate growth, vine tomatoes do not need to be thinned out - water the tomatoes: Depending on whether you pre-sow or direct sow tomatoes, and depending on the location and variety, you will need to water your tomato plants differently often. Tomatoes can develop very deep roots that can even draw water from the groundwater. In this case, you hardly need to water them, if at all. Pay attention to the leaves, if they hang limp you should water your tomato plants. The soil dries out more quickly, especially in pots, raised beds and raised beds, so you will need to water them more often.
