Tomato - Roma (Determinate)
Description
Description

The Roma Tomato is the quintessential plum/paste tomato. Light on seeds and juice, it has thick fruit walls and dense flesh that holds onto seasonings and spices. Ever so good cooked into a thick sauce or paste, canned, or pureed. Compact plants produce meaty, egg-shaped fruits that are sweet and tangy. Skip the flavorless ones at the grocery store and grow your own Romas this summer.

Customer Reviews
Only 2 seeds germinated.
A great choice! These tomatoes grow lovely. I got these last year. Very yummy.
I planted my seeds in starter soil 10 days ago. Just starting to see some, not all, spring to life. I’ll be sure to follow up in a week or so as this is the first time starting my crops using seeds. So far so good.
The seeds arrived quickly after I ordered them, and all of the seeds I’ve used have propagated.
Didn't sprout
As with the Beefsteaks, first time for me from seed. They came up in five days!
The package came three days early and was high quality.
I received my ordered in a timely manner. All good. I bought the seed packet. planted 12 and 12 came up. It is still to early to put out in my area. hoping for next week to get in garden. to soon for most other seeds for garden that I have ordered to write a review.
Excellent delivery time, even came with a little bag of epsom salt.
I planted the seedlings 3 weeks ago. All seeds sprouted and they now have began growing their true leaves. I actually transplanted them today because they are growing so well. I have mine growing under a UV light since I live in PA and my growing season is short. Highly recommended!
