About Vernisazh Black (Vernisazh Chernyi)

A very adaptable and easy to grow saladette tomato for more extreme temperatures, cool nights, and hot days. During a record-breaking summer at Giving Ground Farm, these tomatoes were the first to ripen during 6 weeks of 95+ degrees and produced most heavily. Large, 2 oz, crack-resistant cherry tomato with a ridiculously juicy center and striped tie-dyed red and dark green skin which gives it its “black” appearance. Thick-skinned fruit. Relatively early and productive over a long season. Rich, complex, slightly smokey, tart flavor. Regular leaf. Originated in Ukraine, also known as Vernisazh Chernyi. 75 days, Indeterminate.
