This Russian heirloom tomato bears prolific amounts of small to medium sized red fruits. An early producer that will continue to offer tomatoes through to the frost, this variety is ideal for canning and fresh eating. Listed on other sites as a 'wild tomato' some folks classify it as a different sub species than the common tomato. Its habit is fairly compact and would do well as a container tomato. We were truly impressed by the amount of fruits harvested from this variety.

I'm curious about its blight tolerance. And taste, of course.
