Although Indigo Rose is a variety, produced by crossing cultivated tomatoes with wild species, it is open-pollinated and will breed true from its own seed. This makes it closer to an heirloom variety than a traditional hybrid and will be a welcome addition for gardeners who prefer to save and collect their own seeds.
Its 5' vines require support and produce plentiful 2-ounce fruits in clusters of 6 to 8. You'll find dozens of ways to eat these gorgeous purplish-brown tomatoes with red centers after you taste their balanced, sweet, acidic flavor! Allow fruit to fully ripen on the vine before harvesting. Disease resistant.
