About Morado
Native to Vejer de la Frontera, a Spanish hilltop town and municipality in the province of Cádiz, Andalusia, on the right bank of the river Barbate.
First offered in the Seed Savers 2005 Yearbook by Eduardo Valenzuela of Del Rio Botanical Sinaloa, West Sacramento, California. Indeterminate, regular leaf plant produces good yields of 12-16 oz., dark purplish in color, with green shoulders. Fruit is uniform and crack resistant. Excellent rich, complex flavors. Another great-tasting “black” tomato that should be a good variety for the market grower. Rare tomato variety.
