Delano Grape Tomato (AAS) at Amazon/Prime

Greatgardens · November 10, 2021

I became a huge fan of grape tomatoes last summer with Ruby Crush. So next season, I wanted to try the AAS semi -determinate Celano grape for comparison. I found that Amazon carries some of Park Seed tomatoes, and if you have a Prime membership, free delivery makes trying a single variety financially less painful. Of course Black Friday free shipping from a seed seller would be even better, but we'll have to see if that happens this year. (Edit: I just noticed that I pressed D instead of C for Celano.)

Thanks for sharing Greatgardens. I looked up Ruby Crush, a hybrid determinate grape. How does it compare to Maglia Rosa which I absolutely love?

I've not grown Maglia Rosa, so I can't compare them. A lot of folks here like MR very much, but I believe it is a cherry tomato. The others are grape tomatoes which have different characteristics. I grew RC in an EarthBox, and in ground. There was no comparison there -- the EB version was far superior in flavor, size, and yield. I plan to grow Celano in an EB, also.
