Here is a dark pink tomato that originates from the bottom of the St. Lawrence River and more specifically from Rivière-du-Loup. The seeds come from Madame Francine Mailloux. She gave some to Mr. René Paquet, who presented them to Michel Richard from the Potager d'Antan, who gave them to me. And you'll soon have them in your garden! Called a "hefty" plant by René Paquet, he adds that the indeterminate plant will have a "big yield" with fruits "with red skin and pink flesh". These will weigh, in general, between 400 and 850 grams but can go beyond for some specimens. To find out more, visit the Potager d'antan website.


CARE AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: Gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions about 10 days before planting by taking them out during the day. When planting, lay the plants horizontally, arching them slightly to bring out the leaves upwards.
