A quality, red paste variety with very meaty flesh and few seeds. A very popular old favorite and one of the few heirloom tomatoes that you ever see in the grocery aisle, but don't let those grocery store tomatoes be your guide on judging this tomato's flavor.  This is a determinate variety of tomato and as such the plant will stay compact.
