Rosella Crimson

78 days, determinate dwarf — An early to mid-season, rugose, regular leaf dwarf plants, producing medium to medium large (four to twelve ounce), oblate fruit that have clear skin and deep-red flesh, therefore a pink variety. 'Rosella Crimson' is vigorous and productive, with an excellent to outstanding flavor, in some seasons approaching 'Pink Brandywine' in quality.

Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" as a selection out of the "Sleepy family" ('Budai Torpe' and 'Stump of the World', cross made by Patrina Nuske Small during the Australian Summer of 2005/06). 'Rosella Crimson' is the collaborative work of primarily Patrina Nuske Small (who named it), Craig LeHoullier, Linda Black, Denise Sackett, Justin Morse, Bill Minkey, with input from many others. Introduced in 2014. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.

Excellent Pink Tomato

This tomato doesn't get a lot of attention - likely due to it being a pink/red tomato (which are common). But this one shouldn't be overlooked as it is truly an excellent example of a pink/red tomato. The flavor is outstanding.

The fruit are slightly oblate and average around eight ounces in weight. The interior flesh is meaty, but not dry (perfect for sandwiches).

The plant size is typical for a dwarf (about four feet tall) and it is very productive. A very good yielder. I highly recommend this variety!
