Tomato Pietro Rossa F1 — a mid-early determinate hybrid of French selection, intended for cultivation in open ground and under plastic coverings. Compact plants, 50–60 cm tall, with a strong root system and small dark-green leaves that protect the fruits from direct sunlight. The plant is resistant to fusarium, verticillium, and high temperatures, does not require pinching or staking, which simplifies care and increases yield. It bears fruit from April until the end of autumn, while the plants remain green and do not yellow.
The fruits of tomato Pietro Rossa have a characteristic plum shape, bright red color, and average weight of 70–80 grams. They feature a dense skin and juicy, sweet flesh with high sugar content up to 6%, without acidity. Inside, there are three chambers, ensuring excellent structure and taste. The tomatoes ripen simultaneously and detach easily from the stem, allowing for both manual and mechanical harvesting. Due to their dense structure, the fruits withstand long-distance transportation without damage and have a long shelf life.
This hybrid is widely used for fresh consumption in salads as well as for various processing methods: pickling, drying, curing, and canning. The plants form clusters with 6–8 fruits, which can be harvested whole bunches, attracting customers' attention and creating a fresh appearance. Tomato Pietro Rossa F1 combines high yield, disease and heat resistance, outstanding taste, and versatility, making it an excellent choice for both commercial and home cultivation.
