Another absolutely superb GMO free, mid-season tomato, its skin ripening to the most incredible blue-violet colour. With strong, non-splitting skins holding the highly flavoured flesh, they are relatively late ripeners, but keep very well with an excellent shelf life. These have been bred to produce high levels of anthocyanins, a class of valuable pigments responsible for the blue and purple colours of many fruits, including blueberries and blackberries, which provide protection for the plant against insects, diseases, and ultraviolet radiation, and are thus a most important part of a first class healthy diet.
