Sicilian-Type Cluster Tomato
Sicilian-type cluster tomato is a traditional Southern Italian variety, with round fruits grouped in numerous clusters, prized for its intense flavour and good heat tolerance.
The Sicilian Tomato Plant
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate-growth, vigorous plant well adapted to the hot, dry climates typical of the Mediterranean environment.
How to Sow Sicilian Tomato
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, with soil temperature between 20 and 25°C; transplant into the field after the last frosts.
How to Grow Sicilian Tomato
It prefers fertile, well-drained soil, sunny exposure and regular watering; the plant needs staking and side-shoot removal to support fruiting along the cluster.
Tips for Sicilian Tomato
Harvest the cluster once most fruits have reached full red colouring, for a more intense, concentrated flavour.
Diseases and Pests of Sicilian Tomato
It can be affected by downy mildew, alternaria and blossom-end rot in case of irregular watering; crop rotation and good ventilation help prevent the main plant diseases.
Uses and Curiosities of Sicilian Tomato
Excellent eaten fresh in salads, sliced with olive oil and oregano in the Sicilian tradition, or kept whole on the cluster.
Properties of Sicilian Tomato
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, Sicilian tomato has antioxidant properties and a particularly intense flavour thanks to the sun exposure typical of its growing areas.
