About Sioux

Released by Univ. of Nebraska in 1944. The most popular tomato in OK during the 1950’s. In 1947, Oscar H. Will & Co. said, “It out-yielded all other varieties in South Dakota trials.” Semi-determinate, regular-leaf tomato plants yield large crops of 2 1/2″, 6 oz., red, round, blemish-free tomatoes. This heirloom tomato variety bursts with excellent, slightly tart flavors. Produces plentiful crops even in hot conditions and in dry regions. Great canning tomato and salad tomato.
