Tabalinskij

lexxluthor · February 12, 2016

I was hoping someone can give me information on this mater. I purchased packs of seeds and this was sent as a freebie. He told me this was a prolific red medium size Russian variety with orange shoulders that was last mentioned in the seedsaversexchange yearbook in 2008. I can find nothing regarding pics or information.

From what I can find, Tabalin is a big hill in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There's three languages spoken there: Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian. But the ending on the tomato name is the same as it would be in Russian, I think. SKIJ, SKI, SKIY, and SKY as endings on a name mean "from that place." So the name of your tomato means "from Tabalin."

The multitude of languages spoken in the area make it difficult to research further, but I hope this at least helps a little.

I got my 2016 SSE YEsterday and it is called Tabolinskij and is still being offered by SSE itself, for SSE Members. Says red fruits with orange shoulders, highly productive, SSE Accession 124745, SSE tomato 3361, from IPK

And IPK is

http://www.ipk-gatersleben.de/en/genebank/

And seeds are not available directly from IPK but SSE has a long list of IPK's in the annual yearbooks, and always has,ones from different countries,

But you already have the seeds, so that's good.

There is a small river in Russia called Tabola confluent to Don on of the main Russian rivers. So I believe this variety as been named after this river using Russian way on naming - Tabolinskij.
There is also a Russian pattipan called Tabolinskij.
