PEPPER-SHAPED BERRY RED

Tomato variety Pepper-shaped Berry Red is a medium-early indeterminate variety with a vegetative period of about 128 days. The plant is bushy, reaching a height of approximately 55-60 centimeters, making it suitable for cultivation both in open ground and under plastic coverings. This variety is especially well-suited for southern regions and the middle belt, where it does not require greenhouses, and in northern areas, it is recommended to plant it among tall varieties to save space.

The fruits of this tomato have a distinctive shape resembling a bell pepper — oval, slightly elongated with a smooth surface. At the stage of biological maturity, they are colored in a rich berry-red hue, making them attractive to both enthusiasts and professional tomato growers. The weight of a single fruit varies from 120 to 350 grams, and the flesh is meaty and exceptionally flavorful, melting in the mouth. The unique cut of the fruits resembles marbled beef, which is appreciated by aesthetes and adds additional appeal to this variety.

Pepper-shaped Berry Red is considered a salad variety, but its universal flavor remains intact even after thermal processing, expanding its culinary applications. With proper care and adherence to agronomic practices, yield under plastic coverings reaches 13.1-15.2 kilograms per square meter. The fruits have good storability and maintain their attractive appearance for an extended period, which is a key advantage for commercial cultivation and sales.
