A very delicious tomato! Sweet with just a slight tang. Productive and beautiful. It keeps pretty well on the counter. Relatively resistant to leaf mold (Cladosporium); my plant only just now caught it at the very end of the season. The only downside is that it is a late-season variety for our shorter northern summers. But it&#8217;s still staying on my permanent grow list!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2024_09\/1814870240_.jpg.8fcdabb4b1f34aad1293938a1f9607fc.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2024_09\/220117237_.thumb.jpg.f7828fdfb519ecea681a3aeb1b0250e5.jpg\" alt=\"Sliced Blazhenstvo (Bliss) tricolor tomato showing meaty flesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">M<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Murka (Masha) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (9,358 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Nizhny Novgorod Region (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>An amazing variety from Sofia Saakova, absolutely gorgeous.
