ANGELINA'S ITALIAN, USA. Indeterminate, mid-season, and very high-yielding variety. One of the most vigorous plants with massive production—first to topple the trellis in the season. In open ground, it reaches up to 1.8 meters tall. Fruits are medium-sized, weighing 80–140 grams. Pear-shaped, lightly ribbed near the stem, glossy, and deep red. An ideal variety for canning.
Very meaty, low in juice, with an excellent mild flavor. Angelina Genovese came to America from Italy in 1931 and brought seeds of this tomato with her. Heirloom tomato varieties are those that have been grown for decades or even centuries. They are preserved through traditional seed saving, without genetic modification or modern breeding.
