The tomato variety Elia is a medium-early and ultra-early hybrid with unique characteristics. The plant can be tall, reaching up to 1.5 meters, or more compact, around 50-60 cm, depending on growing conditions. The plants are determinate, with medium-sized leaves and simple inflorescences, which simplifies care and harvesting. The variety is distinguished by high yield and resistance to periodic water shortages as well as many diseases, making it a reliable choice for cultivation both in open ground and in plastic greenhouses. The Elia tomato fruits are large, meaty, and have varied shapes: from slightly ribbed flat-round to smooth, round fruits with a small tip. The weight of a single tomato ranges from 100 to 500 grams, depending on the specific variety and growing conditions. The color of ripe fruits is a deep red, while unripe fruits are green. The flesh is soft, juicy, and loosely structured, with a well-balanced sweet taste and a strong tomato aroma. These qualities make the fruits especially delicious and attractive for fresh consumption, as well as for making juices, salads, and other culinary products. The Elia variety is characterized by a friendly yield, with a maturity period of 100 to 105 days after germination. The yield reaches 8.8 kg per square meter, confirming its high productivity. The fruits attach well even under adverse conditions, have good transportability, and a long storage life. Thanks to these qualities, the Elia tomato is an excellent choice for gardeners who value the combination of taste, yield, and plant resistance.
