How to grow
Grow in full sun. As a determinate variety, plants stay more compact and set their fruit over a concentrated period, so a sturdy cage is usually enough support. Water consistently and harvest when fruit takes on its mahogany color while shoulders stay green.
Flavor profile
Deep and earthy with a meaty texture and few seeds, the kind of full flavor that defines a good black tomato.
