History
- A cold-tolerant selection by a Russian tomato breeder P.Y. Saraev, who specialize in breeding tomatoes that can withstand freezing temperatures. The name means 'for growing in the open ground' in Russian.
- Tatiana's TOMATObase Seeds received 15 years old seeds from Valery Popenko of Semei, Kazakhstan in 2014. The seeds had relatively good germination, and the 2015 growout was successful. Unfortunately there was no way to test the cold tolerance, as the spring was exceptionally warm and quite dry, very unusual for Pacific North West.
- Introduced commercially by Tatiana's TOMATObase Seeds in 2016.
Russian name: Грунтовый
- The name means 'for growing in the open ground' in Russian.
