San Marzano Red Plum Tomato Seeds

[80 days] This tall, indeterminate, heirloom tomato produces a copious amount of medium-sized, oblong, Roma-style fruits whose flavor is almost legendary. Although great for canning and drying, San Marzanos are unsurpassable in sauces and pastes and are thought by some to make the world's finest sauce. An early ripening tomato, the San Marzano produces well over a long season and is disease resistant. The plants reach to about 6’ tall.
