Details
This heirloom variety is renowned for producing copious amounts of bright red, grape-shaped fruits. Each fruit, measuring about 1/2 to 3/4 inches, is thin-skinned and packed with a fantastic flavor that's ideal for snacking, cooking, or even canning whole. They are especially delicious when used in salads or preserved, as their sweet tangy taste adds a delightful dimension to dishes. This Italian variety is notably prolific, producing a continuous yield over an extended period. The Crovarese Grape Tomato is a testament to the rich flavors and quality that heirloom varieties can bring to your table and garden.
