A highly prized Italian heirloom tomato for its fruit with firm pulp and thick skin, used in the concentrate industry as well as for canning 'peeled' tomatoes. This is truly the Italian standard for sauce and paste and a heavy producer. The fruit are long, often mistaken for large peppers from a distance. Fleshy with few seeds, often with 'dry' seed cavities, and with an authentic flavor that will take you back to Italy. A vigorous grower (we couldn't believe the size of the harvests even in zone 5), indeterminate. UNTREATED
