The Tomate Black Beauty is a late-season variety known for its striking appearance and rich flavor. Developed in 2016 by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms, this indeterminate tomato produces slightly flattened, lightly ribbed fruits weighing between 100 to 300 grams. The skin exhibits a deep black-violet hue due to high anthocyanin content, while the flesh is a dark red-purple, offering a thick, meaty texture with an excellent flavor that intensifies after harvest.
Note: Delivered in craft paper seed bag (see second photo).

Species-specific cultivation instructions
Sowing: Start seeds indoors from February to March at a minimum of 20°C.
Transplanting: Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when plants are 12-15 cm tall, spacing 50 cm apart with 1 m between rows.
Watering: Water regularly to maintain consistent soil moisture.
Harvest: Harvest when fruits reach full coloration; flavor improves after picking.
Other Considerations: In hot regions, provide partial shade to prevent sunscald and enhance fruit quality.
