TOMATO Paul Robeson 4″sq

This Russian heirloom was named in honor of Paul Robeson who was an influential African American activist, artist, actor, and athlete of the 20th century. His namesake tomato developed almost a cult following among seed savers. The maroon- brick 6–12 oz oblate often bi-lobed fruits with dark green shoulders come closest in flavor to Black Krim, but claim their own distinctive sweet smoky taste. A sandwich tomato with a tang, an extraordinary tomato for an extraordinary man. Some tendency to split.
