Indeterminate- The Carbon tomato is an heirloom variety renowned for its rich, complex flavor and unique deep purple to dark red color. These large, beefsteak tomatoes can weigh up to 10-12 ounces, making them ideal for slicing. The fruit’s juicy, sweet, and slightly smoky taste makes it a favorite among tomato enthusiasts. This variety is prized not only for its exceptional taste but also for its appealing, dark, and almost black skin.
So I've grown this tomato for many years now, and I've grown it in a "death match" with many storied competitors. Carbon has reliably beaten both Paul Robeson and the legendary Black Krim in my opinion. Grown together in the same garden, tasted together at the same time, going back and forth for each each bite. I even think it edges out the remarkable new-comer Black Beauty. Carbon manages to dominate in its own unassuming way. If you crave the black tomato flavor, that earthiness, that subtle smoke, you must try Carbon.

Fantastic tomato with that special taste.
An excellent variety everyone should try
Beautiful seeds make beautiful plants. Thank you for a lovely product.
I received my seeds on time and immediately planted them. They germinated in 3 days. I'm about a week away from planting them into my garden. Hope to taste this variety soon.
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.

This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
