Solanum lycopersicum
‘Moskvich’ translates to “inhabitant of Moscow”, paying homage to the area where it was bred in the early 1970s (more information inside packet). After a winter without homegrown tomatoes, it will be the first one you will harvest, as it withstands cool weather. At the end of the hot summer when temperatures cool off, it is the last to slow down in production of full-size, garden-fresh fruit. Botanical Interests’® Moskvich Pole Tomato Seeds are USDA Organic and have been verified by The Non-GMO Project.
