Principe Borghese Tomatoes

Principe Borghese Tomatoes range in size from that of a grape tomato to a small plum tomato, weighing 1 to 2 oz (30 to 60g), and will be up to 1 ½ inches (4 cm) wide, with small points at their end.

The tomatoes ripen to red. They have low moisture, few seeds, and a sweet taste.

They grow in clusters of up to 10 tomatoes.

Owing to the tomato’s low moisture, it retains more of its flavour when dried, so is often used for producing sun-dried tomatoes.

It is also good for paste.

The plant needs staking.

65 to 80 days from seed, depending on location.
