About Justyna
‘Justyna’ tomato was selected and stabilized by Tatiana Kouchnareva of Tatiana’s TOMATObase in 2008-2013, from the cross made by Tom Wagner between ‘Mountain Roma’ and an F2 of ‘Sun Sugar’ tomato. Selected for earliness, fruit color, and flavor and named after Justyna Kowalczyk, a well-known Polish cross-country skier, who has been competing and winning various prestigious ski competitions, including the Olympic Games, since 2000. It was first introduced commercially by Tatiana’s TOMATObase Seeds in 2014.
Indeterminate, regular, and wispy leaf plant, with distinguishing foliage smell, similar to the ‘SunGold’ tomato. It produces small (0.5-1oz./14-28g), elongated, orange, plum-shaped fruits with a charming pointed tip at the blossom end. Delicious sweet taste with some acidic undertones. Excellent in salads, salsas, and sauces. Midseason, about 72-75 days to maturity.
