Solanum lycopersicum L.
Tomato seeds Afternoon Delight (Solanum lycopersicum L.), packet of 10 seeds, Pomidorlandia.
A variety bred by Brad Gates (Wild Boar Farms, USA) that originated from an accidental cross between Big Rainbow and an anthocyanin line. Large, solid and very meaty beefsteak fruits: red and yellow bicolour with purple anthocyanin splashes on the sun-exposed shoulders. Especially striking when sliced, thanks to the two-tone flesh. Vine-ripe fruits hold well on the plant and keep their flavour and texture after harvest.
