Large beautiful orange heart-shaped fruits are meaty, with few seeds and of exceptional flavor. Plants are tall and gangly and will need adequate caging (not a great variety for a single stake/pole). Fruit is set 3 or more per truss, and are exetremly variable in shape. Most will be heart-shaped, but others will have a very distinctive pointed blossom end which gives the fruit an overall appearance of a Fox's nose.
If you like to juice your tomatoes, this should be on your 'must grow' list. And, you'd be remiss if you didn't grow a plant or two for sauce! Oh, and chili, another 'must grow'...
