The Paul Robeson variety is a tomato from Russia, named after the famous American opera singer and civil rights activist, Paul Robeson. It is an open-pollinated variety, known for its deep, rich flavor that combines sweetness with delicate, earthy, smoky notes. The fruit is dark red, almost mahogany in color, with green or purple accents on the shoulders. The fruit weighs between 150 and 400 grams, and its shape is slightly flattened.
The plant is tall, which means it requires support and regular care. Paul Robeson does well in cooler climates, making it ideal for growing in northern regions such as Northern Europe or Central Siberia, where it originated. The plants are high-yielding and produce a mid-season harvest, with the fruit ripening in about 75-80 days.
Due to its excellent taste, especially appreciated by lovers of dark tomatoes, it is often chosen for salads, sandwiches and as a fresh addition to dishes.
