| 97 days from setting out transplants. F1TVaVD. Indeterminate. When it's time to make tomato paste, what you want is armloads of ripe, delicious fruit, all about the same size so they will cook down evenly. That's what you get with this new variety from Germany -- masses of plump, firm, bright red fruit full of flavorful solids and fewer gels, for a very long season of harvest. Agro Hybrid is a San Marzano type, with firm-skinned fruit that won't crack or burst on the plant. This is the type of Tomato for which the Mt. Vesuvius region of Italy is famous, and the sauces and pastes it makes are renowned for their full, tangy flavor. When it's time for authentic Neopolitan cuisine, rely on Agro! Early to harvest and a very heavy producer all season, this is a cook's best friend. It is highly adaptable to different climates, and a dependable performer in all. Give it a try this season! Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees F. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 2 to 2 1/2 feet apart. Pkt is 10 seeds. |
