History

  • Russian commercial variety from St. Petersburg.
  • Andrey Baranovski of Minsk, Belarus distributed the seed for this tomato in 2004 via Garden Web seed exchange under the translated name White Nights. Several SSE members picked it up and listed it in the Seed Savers Yearbook as a red medium size tomato. Later Andrey introduces it in Seed Savers 2007 Yearbook as Belye Nochi and lists it as 55-60 days, early, det. plant with a good yield of dark raspberry pink meaty 60-80 g round fruits, good keeper, rather cold tolerant, from Russian CV Bioteknika, St. Peterburg, which is consistent with the descriptions that some Russian seed vendors provide for this tomato.
