The plants produce huge (100g to 300g) firm tasty tomatoes that ripen to a deep red colour. The plants are very hardy, they have weathered an attack of tomato blight that killed off other crops in only a week, they need to be kept evenly watered though as the fruit will split if you let them dry out even a little bit. I will definitely be growing this variety again.
