About Zapotec Pleated

‘Zapotec Pleated’ is a strain of ‘Zapotec’ tomato, that came from the interior of Oaxaca, Mexico. Said to be grown by the indigenous people of Oaxaca. Very prolific, indeterminate, and regular leaf plants with a very good yield of large (10-16 oz.), deeply pleated, (almost triangular in shape) pink-red fruit, with a somewhat hollow interior and mild sweet flavors. Popular for baking, grilling, or stuffing. Good cooking and canning tomato. Late, about 85 days to maturity.
