Roma Tomatoes are the standard for canning and saucing. They have very few seeds, which speeds up the canning and saucing process. Roma Tomatoes yield a rich, authentic, meaty tomato tang. They can be used to make or accentuate an almost endless array of dishes. Roma Tomatoes are bright red, thick-walled, and plum-shaped. They are borne on very heavy-bearing plants. Roma Tomatoes are a feast for the eyes and the palate. They are the most popular tomato for cooking, canning, and saucing. They are resistant to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt Race 1, and Nematodes.
