Rosalia?

PNW_D · January 11, 2013

Can't find much on this one from Andrey........ there is one that seems similar with similar name

http://t.tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Rozalinda

Can anyone confirm Rosalia is correct name? Anyone grown this one?

Pics attached

I've grown Rozalinda and it doesn't have fruit stems like the pictures in your post. Rozalinda in a rugose leaf dwarf with pink fruit larger than a golf ball but smaller than a tennis ball and those fruit come in singles or small clusters, usually 2 or 3 tomatoes per cluster.

Rosalinda is another good variety, but that seedpack is really for original Rozalia from the Russian vendor Sedek. It was my seed source as well.

The correct transliteration should be 'Rozalia'.

Here is the translation of the description from the back of the packet:

Early, large-fruited sort for growing under cover. Strong plants up to 1.2-1.5 m tall. Dark pink fruits are round and oblate, meaty, with high sugar content. 100-120 gram. Very good taste. Good for fresh eating, canning, and juicing.

Vendor: Sedek.

Based on the stamp at the back of the packet, the seeds could be from 2004-2007 crops.

If you Google Sedek it will take you right to their website, and will translate (sort of) the Russian into English if you ask it to. They have a lot of varieties. it's interesting.
