Dark, almost russet-red tomatoes are known for the rich flavour, and Aussie Drop lives up to this expectation. The small rounded fruits with a slightly elongated heart shape are juicy and great for snacking, and the slightly later ripening makes them a great choice for your mid-season tomato supply. Best of all, this Aussie-bred dwarf tomato variety is almost sure to thrive in local conditions besides being good for folks who don't have room for sprawling tomato vines and "urban farmers" who garden in containers. Open Source Seed Initiative This variety of Dwarf Tomato was bred by the Dwarf Tomato Project.
