Stupice from Real Seeds
Cordon - heading towards the ridge as we speak.
Large salad tomatoes on downward hanging trusses.
First ripe tom - end July.
Potato leaf so a risk of cross pollination with other tomatoes. I've grown them in a GH on their own.
Consistent size and shape. Firm to pick and hung well on truss until picked.
Taste - juicy, not many seeds, sweetish but I was disappointed - I like a bit of a tang but I have only tasted one so the others may be better.
Overall, good size for a salad or sandwich but too big for grazing on!!

Stupice EARLY VINE
This fantastic 1954 variety from Eastern Europe is the earliest of all our vine tomatoes.
We had a rare tomato trial in 2010 and this one was noticeably earlier than the others; we got a great crop simply in large pots on our patio, despite the rainy summer. The plants are vigorous and produce red fruit with an excellent flavour. Ideal for outdoors, but also good in a greenhouse for early crops.
Larger than a cherry tomato, but not as big as a beefsteak type, the fruit are about two inches across and ideal for salad use.
Fast-fruiting variety for shorter summers, ideal if you grow your tomatoes outdoors.
