Tomato-Rio Grande (100g)


The Rio Grande is a small slicer tomato that grows up to around 4 oz. We recommend throwing this variety into a salad because of its petite size. What this tomato lacks in size makes up for in flavor! It is packed with acidity and sweetness. One of the tastiest Roma-type varieties out there. This variety produces heavy yields on compact plants that will grow all season long.
