Product Details

Carbon is one of the darkest and most delicious tomatoes you can grow, with 10–12 oz fruits that are a deep purplish-brown on the outside and rich brick-red on the inside. The "Best Tasting Tomato Award" winner at the Heirloom Garden Show in 2005, Carbon continues to rate very highly in taste tests. Its rich and sweet flavor makes for a lovely slice on a sandwich or salad. As an indeterminate tomato, this variety keeps growing and producing tomatoes throughout the season, ensuring a steady supply of these incredible fruits for you to enjoy.
