📌 Quick Summary (TL;DR): Adamovo Yabloko (Adam’s Apple)
- 🌍 Origin: A highly reliable Russian commercial variety. The name translates to “Adam’s Apple”.
- 🌿 Plant Habit: Indeterminate, growing up to 1.8m (6 ft) tall even in open ground. Known for being incredibly disease-resistant and tough.
- 🍅 Fruit Characteristics: Red, very smooth, firm, and thick-walled. The shape is slightly elongated, almost like a fat plum. Note: some growers report a slightly rounder, multi-chambered variation.
- 💪 Performance: An absolute workhorse in the garden. Growers rave about its ability to set fruit continuously without dropping blossoms, even during bad weather or late into the autumn frosts.
- 👅 Flavor & Use: Sweet, juicy, and rich in tomato aroma. While great for fresh eating, its firm walls and perfect size make it a top-tier choice for whole-fruit canning.
Looks like I have another new favorite this year.
Highly productive, the bush is tall – 1.8m (6 ft) outdoors in open ground. The fruits are firm, thick-walled, very even and smooth, slightly elongated into a plum shape. I love tomatoes like this for canning, they barely squeeze through the mouth of the jar 😄. Color is red.
I sliced 3 of them open – the fruits have 3 seed chambers, sweetish taste.
This photo is from August 5th. All the bottom ones have already been picked ripe, but it just keeps setting fruit without skipping a single truss all the way to the top.
My Apple is a little bit different.
It’s also one of my favorites now. Everything is just like Galya said, except you definitely wouldn’t call my fruits 3-chambered. The taste is sweet and juicy. When I finally remembered I needed to take a picture of it sliced, I had already scooped the seeds out of one half, so it lost 30 g (1 oz) in weight.

Grew it in the greenhouse, pruned it to 3 main stems.
I really liked the variety. Average yield, good taste, and the bush is not prone to sickness at all.
I liked it.
Galochka-64 shared her seeds with me (thank you 🌺)
I REALLY liked this variety for its taste and for its excellent fruit set – it didn’t drop any blossoms even in bad weather conditions. The tomato is sweet, juicy, with a rich tomato flavor and aroma.
It also sets fruit perfectly and ripens on the vine outdoors in open ground. One of my top favorites of the 2015 season.
Galochka, thank you 😘 The variety is a real workhorse, it didn’t drop a single blossom all the way until the frosts hit. Amazing for canning 😋
