Mama Leone

Nice fat, plum, red paste tomatoes. They average 4-6 oz. and are very meaty with few seeds. They still have plenty of juice and have very good flavor, both fresh and cooked. Excellent yields on vigorous plants that need good support. Wonderful for sauce and salsa.

Story:

From Tatiana’s TOMATObase:

  • An heirloom variety from Italy. Seeds were brought to the United State by a family of Italian immigrants and ended up at a nursery in New York state, who offered plants.
  • First offered in the Seed Savers 2005 Yearbook by Nancy Kirch of Binghamton, New York (NY KI N), from a local nursery in New York state.
  • First introduced commercially in 2008 by Tomato Growers Supply and Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds .
