The Purple Russian variety (also known as Ukrainian Purple) originates from Ukraine and is extremely popular due to its unique taste and versatility. The fruit of this variety is elongated, plum-shaped, with dark purple, almost black skin, weighing from 100 to 150 grams. These tomatoes are very fleshy, juicy and have an intense, sweet-wine flavor, making them an ideal choice for sauces, salads and sandwiches.

The plant is tall, which means it requires tying. The fruit ripens in 75-80 days, and the variety is characterized by high yield, providing abundant harvests throughout the season. Purple Russian is also valued for its resistance to cracking and the ability to develop well even in colder climates.

Thanks to its unique taste and high quality fruit, Purple Russian is one of the most appreciated varieties among lovers of black tomatoes.
