Evil Olive Tomato (Lycopersicon lycopersicum)

Evil Olive Tomato (Lycopersicon lycopersicum): We 're posting this relatively old variety because it's given us great results in recent years. The tomatoes have a bold flavor and an unusual color. They're small, oval-shaped, with smooth, firm skin that turns a dark olive green with purple-black hues when ripe. Their unusual, almost "Gothic" appearance makes them perfect for those seeking something original in the garden and on their plate. The flavor is intense and aromatic, with light smoky notes: much richer than a common cherry tomato. Excellent raw in salads, but also for preserves, they're also suitable for winter storage thanks to their thick skin, solid stem attachment, and high sugar content. The plant has indeterminate growth, is hardy, vigorous, and has good heat tolerance. They love full sun, which is also essential for the development of their rich anthocyanins. It produces abundant, long-lasting fruit, with beautiful clusters of decorative and flavorful fruit. A good practice is to use cultivars rich in anthocyanins that tolerate sunlight well to shade others that are susceptible to sunburn.
An unusual tomato with a strong character and excellent productivity.
