About Chinese Velvet

A unique tomato from Ukraine, with nicely sized, globe-shaped fruits that are covered in a golden fuzz. Fruits are plump and fairly juicy, with long keeper qualities that have them last off the vine well. The flavor is very mild, similar to some of the popular Asian varieties. The plant also features attractive foliage which, like the fruits, is covered in fuzz.
