AnnualIndeterminate. Japanese Black Trifle is a unique heirloom tomato known for its rich, smoky-sweet flavor and pear-shaped, mahogany-colored fruits. This indeterminate variety produces medium-sized tomatoes with dense, meaty flesh and few seeds, making them perfect for slicing, roasting, or fresh eating. The plants are highly productive and offer good disease resistance.
Great seeds.
I wanted new trifle tomato seeds and I knew I could count on you guys!
They are a late producer for my climate in the PNW. The plant was healthy, the fruit was pretty but when compared to harvest size and taste they didn't quite make the cut. I grow 8 varieties of sauce/cooking tomatoes every year and then make a lovely spaghetti sauce with each one to taste test them. 2025 will be my 10th year of conducting these home trials for sauce tomatoes.
The seeds did perfect. They produced beautiful fruit. But I did not care for the tomatoes. The bottom half became very mushy while the top was still very green.
This by far is my favorite tomatoe that I have grown. It does not crack it's the right amount of acidity.
I'm not just saying this because I am from the great state of New York, but the New Yorker tomato from MI Gardener is stupendous....It almost over-performed last summer (is that even possible?) I can't wait to get started with them again this year.!!
I used revive Rex last year with excellent outcomes. I wanted you to make sure I have it on had for this gardening season.
Delicious and prolific.I'll plant this on repeat!
Grew these for the past three years and I will keep growing them for many more. I highly recommend them. Great germination rate. Every onion grew to the size of baseballs and others a bit bigger and they store very well.Best long day onion I have ever grow.
I am very happy with my heirloom seeds. I cannot wait to germinate them.
