About Speckled Roman (Striped Roman)

Speckled Roman, AKA Striped Roman. The source of this tomato is John Swenson. A cross between Antique Roman and Banana Legs. The tomato has the distinct end nipple of the latter. Our TomatoFest organic seeds produce compact, indeterminate, regular-leaf tomato plants that have a high yield of very intriguingly beautiful, meaty, 4-6-inch long, orange-red paste tomato with good flavors and wavy yellow stripes. Looks like a fat sausage with a pointed end. A great novelty tomato that makes a good tomato sauce, along with other colored paste tomatoes.
