What kind of tomatoes did I grow?


I lost the label, but they’re not very big and just now started really growing/ripening

    Beautiful ones!

    I have no idea the type, but needed to compliment your harvest.

    They look a lot like the Costoluto Genovese I grew this year

    There are hundreds of varieties that look like this.

    Some of my Costoluto Fiorentinos. I also grow Costoluto Genovese, which are a more common variety and look nearly identical. I use both as a sauce accent tomato. Both varieties have exceptionally thick skins and will stay ripe on the vine without rotting for 10 days or more. There are other niche varieties that look like these too, so it’s not a firm ID on your tomato, but it’s a fair guess.

    I grow genuwines, a cross of costoluto Genovese and brandywine. They were small this year and look like yours.

    OoOoOo! Beautiful! I’d love to know the variety as well.

    Would you consider your plant giving a good harvest this year?

    Those look like magazine perfect tomatoes! Yum.

    They look like some version of Costoluto to me as well (I grow Genovese). If so they make a great sauce, turning creamy after heating chunks on high for 10 minutes. Then another 10 or 15 on medium and strain.

    Red. Those are definitely red tomatoes

    Looks like Costoluto Genovese but there are others that grow in that ribbed shape.

    Those are Ceylons or I’m a monkeys uncle.
