Tomato

Just the right size for slicing fresh for sandwiches. This large, somewhat flattened and ribbed, bright red tomato is solid, meaty, and juicy with a hint of acid. Vigorous vine produces a heavy yield of this summertime treat. Indeterminate: may require staking. Grow in full sun for sweetest flavor.
