(Note: Do not confuse this with similar-sounding varieties like <em>Slavyanskiy Shedevr<\/em> or <em>Altayskiy Shedevr<\/em>). The name translates to &#8220;Masterpiece&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>Plant Habit:<\/strong> Indeterminate, mid-season. It reaches about 1.5 to 1.8 meters (5 to 6 ft) in a greenhouse. The plant is sturdy and compact in its seedling stage, and the mature foliage is well-behaved (not overly bushy or sprawling).<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf45 <strong>Fruit Characteristics:<\/strong> Perfectly uniform, flat-round red\/dark pink fruits. They typically weigh 250-400g (9-14 oz), with some reaching up to 500g (1.1 lbs). They are meaty, heavy for their size, and lack the hard white core or green shoulders often found in commercial types.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udc45 <strong>Flavor:<\/strong> Consistently rated in growers&#8217; &#8220;Top 10&#8221; lists. It has a rich, sweet, and juicy flavor. If grown in cold, cloudy summers, it retains a pleasant, balanced tanginess.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83e\uddfa <strong>Storage:<\/strong> While not a dedicated &#8220;winter keeper,&#8221; its skin is firmer than thin-skinned oxhearts, allowing it to store reasonably well on the counter for fresh eating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"strain-history-note\" style=\"margin: 20px 0; padding: 15px 20px; background-color: #e6f7ff; border-left: 4px solid #0073e6; border-radius: 4px; color: #333;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 10px; color: #005bb5;\">\ud83d\udca1 Grower&#8217;s Tip: Cold Weather &#8220;Tans&#8221; &amp; Truss Pruning<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.5;\"><strong>The Purple Shoulder Phenomenon:<\/strong> If you grow <em>Shedevr<\/em> in a climate with cold nights (or experience a sudden cold snap), you might notice the tops of the tomatoes turning dark purple or blue. Do not panic! As Russian growers noted below, this is not a genetic mix-up with a blue tomato. It is a natural stress response where the plant synthesizes anthocyanin to protect itself from the cold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 10px 0 0; line-height: 1.5;\"><strong>Truss Management:<\/strong> This variety is a massive yielder and can set up to 9 large fruits on the very first truss. Be careful! If you let the plant carry 2 kg (4.5 lbs) of tomatoes on the bottom truss, it will exhaust itself and skip the second truss entirely. Don&#8217;t let greed ruin your harvest\u2014thin out the first truss to ensure consistent production all the way up the vine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"add-review-cta\" style=\"margin: 20px 0; padding: 15px; background: #f9f9f9; border-left: 4px solid #4CAF50; border-radius: 4px;\"><strong>\ud83c\udf45 Grown this variety?<\/strong> <a href=\"#wpdcom\">Click here to add your own photos and review below!<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">S<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Sandr (Alexander) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Member (339 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>I liked the variety, the fruits are very uniform, fruit weight is 250-350g (9-12 oz).
