Storage tomatoes are specially bred to have a longer shelf life compared to traditional fresh-market varieties. Their genetics include traits that slow down ripening, enhance firmness, and improve resistance to post-harvest diseases. Unlike standard tomatoes, which soften quickly after harvest, storage tomatoes remain firm and flavourful for weeks, making them ideal for extended storage and transportation. These varieties are perfect for growers looking to reduce waste and extend the availability of high-quality tomatoes.
This lovely plum shaped fruit is of particular interest to us here at She Grows Veg because of its storing ability. Harvest the entire truss and hang in a cool, dark place and the fruits can keep for months without perishing, meaning fresh heirloom tomatoes well into winter. As they age they naturally dehydrate leaving you with a crop of dried tomatoes akin to ‘sun dried’ if left long enough. Also known by the Italian translation Principe Borghese.
Indeterminate/cordon variety.
