This is big and meaty! It’s flavorful, and a real beauty. They produced really well for me in the Phx AZ. The seedlings were one of the fastest-growing and strongest out of the 30 varieties I grew last year. If you are looking for a good introduction into a Turkish variety of tomato, this is it!

Glad to hear it did well in Phx. So I’ll give it a try in Albuquerque. The Turkish tomatoes give some of the best flavor in our arid conditions.
