Black from Tula

A lovely, deep reddish brown tomato with green shoulders. It is an irregularly shaped beefsteak, medium to large size, 8-12 oz. The flavor is excellent - rich, sweet and spicy with a smooth texture. It is considered by many to be one of the best dark tomatoes. Production is very good.
