📌 Quick Summary (TL;DR): Zore’s Big Red

  • 🌍 Origin: A renowned heirloom variety. In Russian collections, it is often circulated under the translated name “Bolshoy Krasnyi Zora”.

Bolshoy Krasnyi Zora (Zore’s Big Red). Indeterminate with potato leaf (PL) foliage. The fruits are shaped like beautiful, meaty red hearts weighing up to 500g (1.1 lbs) with a very small amount of seeds. Sweet, and very tasty! I received it as seedlings from @Tatunya 👍
