No variety, which is called in Italy Pienollo del Vesuvio exist. It's just a general name for tomatoes (Principe Borghese, .........), which has more than 150 years grown around the volcano Vesuvius.
The "Tomato Piennolo Vesuvius PDO" brings together old local cultivars and biotypes united by morphological and qualitative characteristics more or less similar, the selection of which has been carefully decades by the farmers themselves. The names of these ecotypes are popular attributed by the local producers, such as "Fiaschella", "bulb", "Patanara", "Principe Borghese" and "Re Umberto", traditionally cultivated for centuries in the same area of origin.
All these tomatoes have a normal tomato leaves. All have a normal tomato leaves. Tomato called Pienollo del Vesuvio with potato leaf introduced here on Tomatoville member Fusion Power.

There is no problem to grow tomatoes that look like those exported to piennolo- pendulum. But their quality is not responsible for storing to those from the area around Vesuvius. I know from my own experience of five years.
