Caspian Pink Tomato
Tomatoes are high in the antioxidant vitamins beta-carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E, as well as the carotenoid lycopene. This means that tomatoes are helpful in preventing heart disease and cancers. Tomatoes are also high in potassium but very low in sodium which means they help combat high blood pressure and fluid retention. Borage is an excellent companion plant for tomatoes, squash and strawberries. The plant actually improves the flavor of tomatoes growing nearby. Also draws bees to your garden. Caspian Pink is an open pollinated Heirloom that produces large, some over 450gr, meaty, pink fruits. It has beaten Brandywine in several taste tests!!! Caspian Pink is a Russian variety that comes from the area between the Black and Caspian Seas. It has round, flattened fruit, although some are lobed and irregular with small seed chambers and low acid, a great choice for slicing and sandwiches, but also mixes well with other tomatoes in canning and can sweeten up some of the more acid types. It is an extra pleasure in the garden as it has double blossoms. Definitely worth your time to grow this one! It takes 80 days to reach maturity. The bid amount is for 1 Seed We'll supply you with all the germination & care instructions. |
