Tomato Carbon Unity Grown

Carbon tomatoes are a black heirloom tomato variety noted for their high productivity and meaty tomatoes with dark red to purple-black flesh. Fruits are savory, rich, and meaty, making them perfect for sandwich slices, fresh eating, or even turning into juices. Carbon produces a high number of large fruits that are of exceptional quality for heirloom seeds, and are naturally resistant to cracking and cat-facing.

Very large even for tomatoes of this type, the Carbon variety grows to between 3' and 9' tall and will  require staking. Carbon is an indeterminate tomato variety, and will continuously grow and produce fruit through the late spring and summer as long as it is provided with enough water, nutrients, and support.

Plants are available in 4" containers beginning the week of 4/21.
