LOVE POTION. A remarkable breeder's variety developed by Natalia Cassanelli from the cross Great White Zebra × Cherokee Purple. It captivates with its unusual fruit coloration, vibrant fruity flavor, and tender, juicy flesh. This is one of those varieties that enchants at first sight and, after the first taste, fully lives up to its romantic name. A mid-season indeterminate variety with a strong, well-developed plant. In open-ground cultivation it reaches about 1.3 m (4.3 ft) in height. The sturdy stems easily support the weight of the large fruits, while the plant produces consistently high yields throughout the season.
The fruits are large beefsteak tomatoes weighing 250-300 g. They are beautifully flattened-round with a smooth surface and a delicate green-bronze coloration. From the blossom end, a soft reddish blush gradually spreads across the fruit, creating elegant color transitions. The skin is smooth, thin, and almost imperceptible when eaten, while remaining resistant to cracking. When sliced, the fruits reveal juicy green-bronze flesh with a pronounced reddish center, producing a striking bicolor effect. The seed cavities are small, leaving most of the fruit filled with tender, meaty, and highly aromatic flesh.
FLAVOR
The flavor is bright, rich, and beautifully balanced. Intense natural sweetness harmonizes with a gentle fruity acidity, while a pronounced aroma with tropical notes gives the fruits exceptional refinement. The flesh is juicy, tender, and literally melts in the mouth, leaving a long fruity finish. It is precisely these remarkable flavor qualities that have made this variety highly prized among lovers of green-when-ripe tomatoes. The fruits are outstanding for fresh salads, vegetable platters, and homemade juices.
Their unusual coloration and spectacular bicolor interior make them a true centerpiece on any table. Love Potion is an elegant collector's variety combining large green-bronze fruits, juicy bicolor flesh, high natural sugar content, and an intense fruity flavor. One of the most exciting modern green-when-ripe tomatoes, capable of winning over even the most discerning gourmet.
