History
- Seeds for this tomato came to North America from Russia. We are not sure where the 'Spanish' in the name came from, but it is possible that the tomato came to Russia from Spain, and the original Spanish name was lost.
- Introduced by Double Helix Farms in 2013 under translated name, Spanish Giant.
- Tatiana's note: We do not support names translation, as it leads to confusion and the same variety being offered under different names. Please always use the original variety name to avoid confusion and preserve variety's roots and history. All the translated names are considered to be 'marketing' names, and not actual variety names.
