Umuthi Tomato (Roma VF) Seeds produce uniform, oval plum tomatoes with dense, meaty flesh and a rich, tangy flavour. Ideal for sauces, pastes and bottling thanks to their naturally lower moisture, these compact, productive plants thrive in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Reliable garden performers with built-in resistance to common wilts (VF), and a steady crop for batch cooking and preserving.
♡ Why we love it: Thick flesh, few seeds and a concentrated tomato taste that cooks down beautifully. Plants stay tidy and set generous trusses for easy harvests and weekend sauce sessions.
Size: 125 Seeds.
