Belmonte Tomato
Belmonte tomato is a native Calabrian variety originating from Belmonte Calabro, prized for its large fruit size and firm, sweet flesh with very few seeds.
The Belmonte Tomato Plant
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. A very vigorous indeterminate-growth plant that can exceed 2 metres in height, with fruits featuring thin pink skin turning red at ripeness.
How to Sow Belmonte 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 Belmonte Tomato
It prefers deep, medium-textured hillside soil, sunny exposure and regular watering; the plant needs sturdy staking to support the weight of fruits, which can exceed a kilogram.
Tips for Belmonte Tomato
The flesh ripens from the inside out: harvest once the fruit has reached full colouring while still keeping good firmness.
Diseases and Pests of Belmonte 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 Belmonte Tomato
Thanks to its low seed content and sweet, low-acid flavour it is ideal eaten raw in salads, as well as for dressing pasta dishes.
Properties of Belmonte Tomato
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, Belmonte tomato has antioxidant properties and a particularly sweet, well-balanced flavour.
