If you grow the “Stone Flower F1” tomato, you will be amazed by its wonderful qualities. This hybrid looks good in an apartment on a window or balcony, on a curb near the path, on a flower bed, in the garden or in the yard.
Description
“Stone flower F1” has a height of 35-40 cm (1.1-1.3 feet) and the same diameter. The shrub is neatly folded, with medium dark green elastic leaves. During active fruiting, it is hung with numerous fruits and impresses with its beauty.
Plants grown in the house in containers of 4-5 liters, have some differences from the “street”. The bushes are lower, the crown diameter is smaller, there are not so many fruit brushes, and the tomatoes are slightly smaller. But wherever they are grown, the fruit has a rich red color and excellent taste.
Unlike many cherry tomatoes, this hybrid is so sweet that it doesn’t seem to have any acid in it at all. Excellent aroma, uniform texture and color of the pulp.
“Homemade” tomatoes on 2-3 independently formed stems form about 6-10 simple and semi-complex brushes with exactly the same size of fruits. They are able to maintain their excellent qualities until the last tomatoes on the plant are fully ripe. The brush receives 7-8 tightly pressed fruits weighing about 10 g (0.35 oz).
“Street” tomatoes look much more powerful: they form 6-8 shoots, 15-20 brushes with a large number of fruits, the green mass is much more lush. Brushes can be simple and semi-complex. As a rule, the growth of shoots is completed with a semi-complex brush. In simple inflorescences from 8 to 11 flowers, in semi – complex-18-25. In simple stems, all ovaries usually develop, in clamped ones without additional 2-4 pollination, the flowers fall off on the brush.
If the “home” tomato has an almost perfectly round shape, then the “street” stalks are noticeably squeezed on both sides, their mass is about 12 g (0.4 oz). The fruits are two-chambered, rich red, with a beautiful shine, there are no spots near the peduncle. Tomatoes in the brush develop organically-gain weight, quickly ripen everything. Ripe brushes and single tomatoes are charming in serving cold dishes and snacks.
Features of the new hybrid
The hybrid “Stone Flower F1” is so named not only because of its beauty when the fruit ripens, but also because the plants have never been damaged in several years of testing. Their health was strong. The hybrid is resistant to tomato mosaic virus, fusarium and verticillate, root and root rot, and many other tomato diseases.
In “home” tomatoes, by the end of fruiting, 5-7 stepsons grow in the scars of the leaves in the lower part of the main stem. They are so strong and good that you can grow an extra crop by removing the top part above them. Ornamental plants recover quickly when the growing stepsons are pulled up to the level of the cut stem.
This delayed fruiting allows you to extend the consumption time. If the first fruits in the first brushes, formed for 7 leaves, please us for 80-85 days, then the last (on stepsons) extend the collection of delicious tomatoes for 1.5-2 months.
When planted in greenhouses and greenhouses with additional heating, the “Stone Flower F1” can be grown in spring-summer and summer-autumn rotations. Thickened planting is also acceptable – 7-8 plants per 1 m² (1.2 sq. yard), but it requires additional fertilizing and good ventilation.
This hybrid is a new creation of breeders. To date, among the hybrids of dwarf cherries, it is the best not only in taste, but also in yield. Many even indefinite cherry hybrids are inferior in yield, appearance, and most importantly-taste.
That’s what a talented beauty named “Stone Flower F1” next year can settle in your garden or house.
