Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T). Nevsky - sliced fruit. 2014-08-10.

B.C KO T

Det., dwarf plants with rugose regular leaf foliage, 2.5' tall, produce slightly ribbed flattened red fruits, 2-5 oz, with some occasional larger fruit. Flesh is quite firm, with good amount of juice. Very good flavor for such an early tomato, with very balanced sweet and acid taste. It is a very good early tomato to grow in containers, it does very well in 3 gal pots. Fair yield.
