Variety from Russia
Variety from Russia
Tsygan (Gypsy) Tomato is named for the Gypsies who live in Russia, this is one of the deepest, purplest, maroon tomatoes we have ever grown. Rich tasting with an almost smoky flavor. They mature from a dark pink-color to a brownish-purple, with the interior turning dark purple. Perfect, uniform, medium-sized globe fruit make this one of the nicest dark varieties on our lists. Blemish free with very little cracking even with heavy rains for days. Good for eating raw, cooking and canning.
This Russian heirloom variety was developed during the Soviet era and was introduced into the USA in 2000. A lovely and colorful introduction from the great Soviet plant breeders. 60+ days.
Indeterminate (vine) variety.
