This Russian heirloom won our hearts with its texture and perfectly balanced flavor, exactly how a tomato should taste! The Roma-shaped tomatoes have a sunset orange hue and 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 to 7 ounces with a small seed cavity and thick, meaty flesh that drips with citrusy, fruity yellow tomato taste. This variety is believed to have been introduced by the Vavilov Institute of Plant Industry in St. Petersburg, Russia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips: \u003c\/strong\u003eThis unique heirloom tomato thrives in full sun and well-drained soil.
