Bush height 5.9 to 6.5 feet (1.8-2 m). Fruit weight 3.5 to 5.3 oz (100-150 g). A gorgeous variety resulting from my breeding work with the Banana Singapore variety. Second line. Huge, very healthy, disease-free bushes that produce fruit until late autumn. The fruits are super beautiful, round or slightly oval-shaped, bright crimson with a blue cap and purple stripes. The flesh is a deep crimson-pink, very juicy, with a fruity aroma and an excellent taste that harmoniously combines sweetness and acidity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I absolutely loved this variety (got my seeds from Tomatanya via T@tk@, thank you!). In the poly greenhouse, it grew tall and sturdy, but wasn&#8217;t overly aggressive. Mid-season, heavy yielder when pruned to 3 main stems, and totally not fussy. It set perfect trusses of stunning, delicious tomatoes. Mine turned out round, with dense, juicy flesh, and they weighed way more than the description stated\u2014mine were between 7 and 15.8 oz (200-450 g). They stored well and counter-ripened beautifully.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sun9-77.userapi.com\/impg\/XX6DClxu_HuhrnIuCXvndq3EL9yJhRyBxk5iWw\/RrOjmVIX-V4.jpg?size=810x1080&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=110361aadbe84f368cddc91eb42e7812&amp;type=album\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sun9-77.userapi.com\/impg\/XX6DClxu_HuhrnIuCXvndq3EL9yJhRyBxk5iWw\/RrOjmVIX-V4.jpg?size=810x1080&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=110361aadbe84f368cddc91eb42e7812&amp;type=album\" alt=\"Beautiful striped Ibiza tomato on the vine\" width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sun9-63.userapi.com\/impg\/fj9Zt0BXSDaHxd9vXeXNv9jZYZBn0-KwB-6mWA\/AvEg9m5FJZU.jpg?size=810x1080&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=985bd117a604f550e6983e3084726eba&amp;type=album\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sun9-63.userapi.com\/impg\/fj9Zt0BXSDaHxd9vXeXNv9jZYZBn0-KwB-6mWA\/AvEg9m5FJZU.jpg?size=810x1080&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=985bd117a604f550e6983e3084726eba&amp;type=album\" alt=\"Harvested Ibiza Elena tomatoes showing purple anthocyanin shoulders\" width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sun9-62.userapi.com\/impg\/RTZKgHL27FNjtekOJFJOTXe7fjeC434xVYRONw\/jftpt2Np1XY.jpg?size=1280x960&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=16914ece1860b3b34431962871135e3d&amp;type=album\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sun9-62.userapi.com\/impg\/RTZKgHL27FNjtekOJFJOTXe7fjeC434xVYRONw\/jftpt2Np1XY.jpg?size=1280x960&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=16914ece1860b3b34431962871135e3d&amp;type=album\" alt=\"Large Ibiza tomato weighed on a digital scale\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sun9-46.userapi.com\/impg\/LbZapW1C9R2eijCcRHdJwXMPqC4_yycsQWd98w\/fQnL7byQ1sA.jpg?size=1080x786&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=1fd05ec43a01d903c4fc8fc9e1c1aced&amp;type=album\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sun9-46.userapi.com\/impg\/LbZapW1C9R2eijCcRHdJwXMPqC4_yycsQWd98w\/fQnL7byQ1sA.jpg?size=1080x786&amp;quality=95&amp;sign=1fd05ec43a01d903c4fc8fc9e1c1aced&amp;type=album\" alt=\"Sliced Ibiza tomato showing juicy pink flesh\" width=\"1080\" height=\"786\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">F<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Fenya (Elena) <span class=\"author-stats\">\ud83d\udc64 Member (650 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Kemerovo Region (USDA Zone 3)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Super tall, absolutely gorgeous, and loaded with highly uniform fruits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2024_01\/IMG_20230802_143905.jpg.079ab243823429322dd7b66fb0f5210b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2024_01\/IMG_20230802_143905.thumb.jpg.813a5f3e129511778e6039e2e16b7695.jpg\" alt=\"Ibiza tomato plant loaded with fruit\" 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\">S<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Svetikk (Svetlana) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (29,381 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Moscow Region (Stupino District) (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Ibiza Elena&#8217;s Beefsteak.<\/p>\n<p>Indeterminate, easily one of the best-tasting and most beautiful varieties this season! \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n<p>I grew it both in a container out in the dirt and in the hoop house.
