Product Description

Cherry tomato Michael Pollan is an organically grown cherry tomato. This special tomato actually falls into two categories. It is a cherry tomato, but at the same time also a roma or plum tomato. These small roma tomatoes ripen from light green with green stripes to yellow-green with dark green stripes. The inside of the tomatoes remains fresh green. The taste is spicy, but not really very sweet or sour. The flesh is wonderfully soft and juicy and for small tomatoes there is quite a lot of flesh. The plants produce a good amount of these tomatoes per plant. About 15 - 25 tomatoes per truss is very normal. Cherry tomato Michael Pollan is named after the American writer, journalist, teacher and grower Michael Pollan. This variety is an accidental mutant of "Green Zebra" that was further bred by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms in America. This early-ripening variety ripens fairly quickly. The small pear-shaped tomatoes weigh about 15 - 45 grams each and grow to about 3 - 4½ cm in size. The top of the tomatoes is narrow and they become more rounded towards the bottom. Just like small pears. Cherry tomato Michael Pollan can be stored well. The difference between ripe and unripe tomatoes isn't always very obvious in green tomatoes, but you can feel it: unripe tomatoes are hard and ripe tomatoes are soft.

This tomato tastes delicious straight from the vine, in salads and in Mediterranean pasta dishes. Provide sufficient sun and warmth and support the plant well for the best result. Tomatoes contain a lot of vitamin C and lycopene. The body takes this in better when the tomatoes are heated. Non hardy annual. Height: 180 - 250 cm.
