Description

The listing, Heirloom Tomato ✽ AZOYCHKA ✽ 15 Seeds ✽ Organic has ended.

A very productive Russian heirloom found at the Bird Market in Moscow. Produces an abundant crop of meaty, yellow tomatoes with a luscious, sweet citrusy flavor. Ripens with an orange cast and a slight blush on the blossom end. These were very productive, even in record heat and drought this summer. Good acid balance, important for canning. Prone to some intersting shaped cat-facing early in the season, but resists cracking and very uniform in mid to late summer. Great for markets.

Days: 68-78
Size: Indeterminate (produces fruit all season)
Season: mid-season
Color: yellow
Type: OP Heirloom
Uses: canning, slicing, salads, fresh eating

This Auction: You will be receiving 15 seeds from my garden. They will be sent First Class mail. I only take Paypal for International bidders. I will also combine any additional auction seeds (within 5 days) for no additional shipping charge. I am happy to say that my seeds tested 99-100% germination within 2 weeks at a temp of 70°F in the spring of 2012. Excellent for beginners!
Propagation Method: From seed, sow seeds indoors 6 weeks before last spring frost. Sow 2-3 seeds per pot and thin to one plant per container. After four weeks, transplant seedlings to larger pots, and about 10 days before the last spring frost, begin hardening the plants to the outdoors. Transplant your plants to a sunny, highly composted location when soil temperatures are at least 55 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Stake or cage the plants for support and to prevent sprawling on the ground.

hey, are these tomatoes yellow, or do they turn reddish/orange if you leave them on the vine...as one of your pics shows?

Still considered a yellow beefsteak (as opposed to bi-color), they do turn a slight orange on the blossom end when ripe. Mine were probably a bit on the over-ripe stage, or possibly the picture should have been lightened a bit. That picture is a couple years old too. Some years weather might be a factor. Sometimes it is just a small orange patch. I don't even remember orange at all this year, now that you have me thinking about it... :)
