(Solanum lycopersicum) Given to Carolyn Male by co-worker Carl Swidorski, who said the seed originated in Poland circa 1900. Part of SSE’s 1997 Polish Collection. Phenomenal set of 3" by 6" red paste tomatoes on vigorous wispy vines. Excellent flavor and very few seeds make this a perfect processing tomato. Fruits hold well on the vine. Indeterminate, 85 days from transplant.

Green Thumb Tip
Sow seeds indoors ¼" deep. Tomatoes are sensitive to freezing temperatures, so wait to transplant outdoors until the soil is warm. Plant in full sun.
