Costoleto Genovese Tomato - Lycopersicon Esculentum - Vegetable - 5 Seeds Exotic Cacti peeling papery bark and autumnThis tomato is an old Italian preserving tomato variety. It's heavily lobed and often convoluted shape is indicative of early nineteenth century tomato varieties, but makes an oddity in today's vegetable garden. The Costoluto Genovese's stellar flavour is intense and acidic. Because of its odd shape, this tomato is best for sauces and pastes where the skin is removed.
