Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T). Victorian Dwarf No.1 - ripe fruit. 2014-08-12.

B.C KO T

Very compact and bushy determinate plants with dense regular leaf foliage. It is not a dwarf (a.k.a. tree-type) tomato, but it is surely a great candidate for growing in pots due its compact size. Heavy fruit set quite early in the season. Fruits are small to medium size, but have an attractive beefsteak appearance. 3-6 oz. We do not recommend to prune the plants, unless you want a reduced harvest. Heavy producer.
