Classic Italian Flavor and Aroma: San Marzano tomatoes deliver deep, old-fashioned richness with a signature aroma you can smell before the first bite. This variety offers a culinary experience prized by chefs and home gardeners alike.
Plum-Shaped, Meaty Fruits: Each tomato weighs between 4½ and 5 ounces, offering juicy yet firm flesh with a low seed count—perfect for homemade sauces, oven-roasting, and long-lasting preserves.
Extended Harvest with Indeterminate Vines: These vigorous, indeterminate plants continue to set fruit throughout the summer, providing generous yields of high-quality tomatoes ideal for canning or cooking in bulk.
Reliable Disease Resistance: San Marzano is naturally resistant to common threats including Fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt, tobacco mosaic virus, and nematodes—ensuring healthier plants and easier maintenance.
Easy Growing Instructions: Start seeds indoors 5–6 weeks before your last expected frost. Transplant outdoors once nighttime temperatures consistently exceed 55°F, spacing plants 6 inches apart. Use covers or bring containers indoors to protect against unexpected late frosts.
