Diamante
Biggest tomato of 2022 at 1.942 lb., with most specimens weighing over 1.5 lb. Beat out all Domingo specimens from 15 vines, along with all Big Zac, Delicious, and several other giant varieties. Attractive, blocky, red fruits with clear skin, meaty flesh, some hollow seed locules, and very good flavor: balanced, flavorful, sweet and tasty. Regular leaf, indeterminate vines with very good yield from 100+ days. Winner of the 2017 Great Long Island Tomato Challenge, weighing in at 3.44 lbs. by Alberto Oppedisano of Franklin Square, New York, who generously supplied seeds to Delectation of Tomatoes. Alberto's source was a friend who brought seeds over from Calabria, Italy. Please note: this is an open-pollinated, heirloom variety which is completely different from a commercial, F1 hybrid variety by the same name.
