🍅 Black Prince Tomato – organically grown 🌿 ideal for cooler climates 🌞 hardy, early-fruiting 🍴 rich flavor and health benefits
Black Prince Tomato is an organically grown, dark purple-black heirloom variety originally from Siberia. First introduced from Irkutsk, Russia, it is regarded as a “true Siberian tomato,” thriving even in cooler climates. Until recently, it was considered a rare variety, but its popularity in Russia has grown so much that a company in Volgograd now produces an extract called Black Prince Tomato Oil.
This variety is celebrated not only for its rich, earthy flavor but also for its health benefits, including high levels of lycopene and antioxidants, making it a functional addition to your garden and kitchen.
