About
A well-known variety, favored with large, smooth, bright red fruit that have thick walls and meaty flesh. Vigorous plants produce heavy midseason yields, are disease resistant, and have heavy foliage to protect the tomatoes from sunscald. Indeterminate: may require staking. Grow in full sun for sweetest flavor.
