25 Seeds Per Packet

The Japanese Black Trifele Tomato is a unique heirloom variety renowned for its rich, smoky flavor and distinctive, teardrop-shaped fruit. The tomatoes typically weigh 6–8 ounces and have a dark, almost black-burgundy skin with a slight greenish hue around the stem. The flesh is dense and meaty, offering a deep, smoky, and slightly sweet flavor with a hint of earthiness, making it perfect for slicing, fresh eating, or adding to gourmet salads.

70-80 days from transplant. Indeterminate plants grow to 5–7 feet tall, producing a steady yield of these flavorful, uniquely shaped tomatoes throughout the growing season. These plants thrive in full sun and require consistent moisture for the best taste and texture. Staking or caging is recommended to support the fruit.

Originally from Russia, the Japanese Black Trifele Tomato is valued for its rich flavor and striking appearance. Its deep, smoky taste and distinct color make it a favorite among gardeners and chefs looking for a flavorful, eye-catching tomato to showcase in their dishes.
