description

The 'Black Krim' Tomato is an emblematic old variety that immediately captivates with the depth of its color, a dark purplish-red that can almost turn black in very hot summers. On a vigorous, indeterminate plant, it produces abundant, beautiful, round, regular fruits with dense, juicy flesh and almost no acidity. Its mild, rich, and sweet flavor makes it one of the most sought-after tomatoes for fresh consumption, especially in salads, where its melting texture and spectacular color create a remarkable effect. In the garden, it provides a strong and generous presence, easily growing tall and requiring sturdy stakes to support its continuous growth and the weight of its fruits. Its good drought tolerance also makes it an interesting ally for warmer seasons, provided it is given fertile, well-drained soil. Its flowering attracts pollinators and contributes to the natural activity of the summer vegetable garden. Each harvest seems to combine visual richness and gustatory pleasure, like a reward for the attentive gardener. A distinctive, productive, and intensely flavorful variety, the 'Black Krim' is a must-have for gourmet vegetable gardens.
