Sasha's Altai

Solanum esculentum (60 days) 

Brought from Siberia by Bill McDorman. "In August 1989, I was in Irkutsk, Siberia, looking for seeds, especially tomato seeds. Hank Bernbaum, our translator introduced us to a dear Siberian friend of his, Sasha. With bright face and kind eyes, Sasha proclaimed he knew where to find seeds to the best tomato in all of Siberia. He asked us if we wanted some seeds. He told us he was more than happy to go get some for us." Very early maturing 2-3 oz red slicers that have a much firmer, meatier texture than other early varieties. Determinate.

Packet:  1/4 g (~50 seeds)
