Indeterminate mid-season slicer. The fruits are very large red beefsteaks with a really good, sweet flavor profile. Yield is excellent. I grew this one out in the dirt. I will absolutely be growing it again. Seeds came from T. Kushnareva.<\/a>

Elena \ud83c\udf3a How did it actually do as an indet grown outdoors, is it really that impressive? How tall did it get out in the open? And how many trusses did the vine manage to set?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Tanya, for being grown outdoors, the taste was fantastic, especially considering our brutally cold summer in 2015. If it had just a touch more sweetness, it would be a completely flawless variety. I think that sweetness could easily be achieved by growing it in a greenhouse. In A. Kulik’s catalog, it’s actually listed as one of the hits of the season.<\/p>\n

Out in the dirt, it didn’t drop a single blossom. Every truss reliably held 2-3 fruits, and they were all huge. It managed to set 4 full trusses for me. I started my seeds pretty late, around early April. The vine topped out at about 4.3 ft (1.3 m) tall.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Even though Klara was hiding in the catalog under an English name, I tracked her down! \ud83d\udc4cThis variety definitely made an impression on me. The tomatoes on this plant were some of the largest I grew all season. Just an absolute monster of a beefsteak. Because the fruit size is so massive, the overall yield per plant is extremely high. It has an extended fruiting window, slowly pumping out the harvest, but it still manages to finish up before our short Northern summer ends. I’d classify it as a mid-late variety.<\/p>\n

The fruits are red and huge (most of mine were well over 1.1 lbs \/ 500 g). The flavor is very bright and bold with a noticeable acidic tang. And surprisingly, despite being so juicy, they hold up pretty well on the counter.<\/p>\n

A very pleasant variety all around.<\/p>\n
