Valencia Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) This heirloom tomato originates from Valencia , Spain. North American introduction dates back to the mid 1800's in Indiana and eventually throughout the New England states. Our seed source comes from an avid tomato grower near Woodstock, New Brunswick. Indeterminate vines produce rounded orange mid-sized fruits with few seeds. A very flavourful variety with smooth skin and firm texture. Requires staking, very good cold tolerance noted in late spring when transplants were lined out.

77 days to maturity

25 seeds per packet $4.45
