About Ten Fingers of Naples (Dix Doigts de Naples)

‘Ten Fingers of Naples’ is a wonderful paste tomato also known under the French name ‘Dix Doigts De Naples’. Probably originated in Italy. First offered in the Seed Savers 1997 Yearbook by Carolyn Male of Salem, New York, and Bill Minkey of Darien, Wisconsin. It was grown by ‘Fruition Seeds’ in Naples, NY. They got these seeds from Owen Bridge of Annapolis Seeds in Nova Scotia. Compact, determinate plants yield huge crops in long trusses of 5-6″, 3 oz., elongated tomatoes with a pointy end. Sweet rich tomatoey flavors rival the best of the best-tasting paste tomatoes for making an incredibly delicious sauce. A great canning tomato. Disease resistant. Midseason, about 72 days to maturity.
