Tomato Napoli Paste Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perSolanum lycopersicum
Napoli Paste is a productive paste tomato producing firm, red, pear-shaped fruits to approximately 60 mm long. The solid, fleshy tomatoes have good flavour and texture, making them equally useful eaten fresh or cooked.
With their dense flesh, the fruits are particularly well suited to tomato paste, passata, sauces and preserving, where less excess juice means quicker cooking and a rich finished product. Fruit sets and ripens over a relatively short period, allowing a substantial quantity to be harvested together for processing.
Plants are vigorous and indeterminate, with some resistance to root and stem diseases. Sturdy staking or trellising helps support the vines as the concentrated crop develops.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram. Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
