Default Fioletovyi Kruglyi

Fioletovyi Kruglyi is a round purple Russian tomato offered by Victory Seed. If anyone has tried it, I would appreciate any information you can share about this tomato.

Thanks!

As it is written on Victory Seeds web-site I was the source of seeds for them. I've got several fruits of this beautiful variety at the experimental field of our Belarusian Institute of Vegetable Gardening in 2006. They has just no need for such untypical non-red tomato with not so excellent ability for storage The name is simple and mine, because they didn't have it for this variety.

Michael, 'Фиолетовый Круглый' is even worse.

Thanks Andrey for the comments I will give the plant a try this summer.

The meaning of Andrey's original name is pretty simple, if not the pronunciation: 'Purple Round'.
