The bush is thin, with weeping foliage of medium length. The fruit shapes varied for me: on one bush I got more elongated and larger icicles with a little beak, and on the second one\u2014chubby plum shapes. But both bushes were productive, setting fruit very well in the heat. The color is extraordinary\u2014not green, not orange, not yellow. Exactly bronze. The taste is good with sweetness, not much liquid inside. Thanks to Elena Danko for the seeds.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/229\/30-200718092310.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/229\/thumb_30-200718092310.jpeg\" alt=\"Amarillo Rusty Paste tomatoes on the vine\" width=\"160\" height=\"89\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/234\/30-090818040306.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/234\/thumb_30-090818040306.jpeg\" alt=\"Harvest of bronze paste tomatoes\" width=\"160\" height=\"89\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/234\/30-090818055508.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/234\/thumb_30-090818055508.jpeg\" alt=\"Chubby plum shape of Amarillo Rusty Paste\" width=\"89\" height=\"160\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/30-160818074924.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/235\/thumb_30-160818074924.jpeg\" alt=\"Sliced bronze tomato showing interior\" width=\"160\" height=\"89\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">Y<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Yulya (Yulia) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (27,001 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Alexandrov (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Quite large plums of a very beautiful bronze color. The taste, again, was pretty ordinary for me this season, with a hint of sweetness. But the yield! \ud83e\udd2f This is just an insanely productive tomato, it produces, produces, and produces! As a result, I had to support the stake it was tied to with a forked branch. Otherwise, the whole bush would have collapsed along with the stake. Started ripening in early August. Meaty, but quite juicy.
