'Marmande' Tomato, Tomat (Solanum lycopersicum)
The species originated in western South America and Central America. Its domestication and use as a cultivated food may have originated with the indigenous peoples of Mexico. One of the largest varieties of cultivated tomatoes, some weighing 450 grams or more. Marmande is a beefsteak type of tomato which is the variety beloved of French holidays. The plant produces large uneven shaped fruits of deep red. It is a later maturing variety but the rich sweet flavour is definitely worth waiting for.
