(Solanum lycopersicum). This Russian heirloom won our hearts with its texture and perfectly balanced flavor, exactly how a tomato should taste! The Roma-shaped tomatoes are a sunset orange hue with a long pointed nose, hence the name Buratino, which is Russian for Pinocchio! We love this all-purpose sauce, slicing and snacking tomato because there are no compromises to be made — it boasts outrageous flavor, exceptionally high yields, hardy plants and versatility! The fruit is larger than a Roma, averaging 5-7 ounces with a small seed cavity and thick, meaty flesh that drips with a citrusy, fruity yellow tomato taste. This variety is believed to have been introduced by the Vavilov Institute of Plant Industry in St. Petersburg, Russia.
