This variety is a family heirloom from Ussuriysk city (Russian Far East). They have been growing it for ages.
Midseason , indet. RL, 200-400 g fruit 3-6 per truss, no cracking, excellent old-fashion tomato flavour and a very good yield. The color is bright red-orange. Very meaty fruit, few seeds. We call this fruit shape a bomb-like. Usually very healthy plants with thick stem. Great variety indeed.

The color is close to orange here. How about the shape of your fruit?

rxkeith March 3, 2021 04:18 PM

mine were uniform pretty much round globes.


color was ORANGE, no mistaking for red.


your picture andrey looks like they could be heart shaped? or at least
somewhat elongated. higher shoulders.

Not heart, but elongated bomb shaped like on the second picture. A very bright red-almost orange color.

looks like a good one at any rate.
