TOMATO – ‘Carbon’

(1 customer review)

$4.50

Highly recommended tomato! Carbon produce nice large beefsteak fruit that are beautiful, mostly blemish free and delicious! Fantastic whether eating fresh or making sauce. Winner of the 2005 “Heirloom Garden Show” best-tasting tomato award. These have won taste awards coast to coast in the last few years. The fruit is smooth, large, and beautiful, being one of the darkest and prettiest of the purple types we have seen. It seems to have an extra dose of the complex flavor that makes dark tomatoes famous.”
“Rich, complex flavors made this variety the winner of a recent heirloom tomato taste testing at Cornell University.”

Description

 

“This is among the darkest of the ‘black’ tomatoes that we’ve seen and one of the very best tasting tomatoes of any kind that we’ve sampled. Its flavor is exceptionally rich yet sweet and the essence of delicious summer tomato flavor. Medium to large, 8 to 12 oz. tomatoes are flattened round and smooth, without the cracking or blemishing that seems to plague some black tomatoes. They are dark purplish-brown on the outside with a deep brick-red interior. Indeterminate. 80 days.”

Produces large, 8 to 12 ounce crack resistant fruits – bigger than Cherokee Purple. Excellent for salads and sandwiches. ”

Although they are perennials, lupins are in the class of short-lived perennials. They put all their energy into those magnificent flower stalks and wear themselves out in the effort. Lupins live in the range of two to five years, but luckily they will self seed and the butterflies and bumblebees will love you.
