They're a smaller plum shape without the nipple that Pomodorino Vesuviano has. ~Dig |

Oh cr#p, I just realized I planted the determinate Principe Borghese, not the good indeterminate variety.

I pulled out my seeds and the other Seeds from Italy seeds I have that look very similar are Fiaschetto di Manduria...Vigorous plant, heavy producer of deep red plum tomaotes with a bit of a nipple on the end...Haven't grown this one either...

Good news! The Piennolo del Vesuvio seeds have arrived along with a paste tomato named Bernardini and another tomato from Garfagnana. ~Dig

I'll have to ask my mom about that tomato. She's from Naples, and in fact, I was born there on the now closed Naval Base, so I'd love to grow some myself. Looks really delightful too!

So here is a bit of info to add to your anticipation. Piennolo is potato leaf.

Dig,
are there any news about your experience with Vesuvio? What was its leaf type and productions?
