The Pantano Delizia tomato is a French Marmande-type hybrid variety, with round, medium sized fruit weighing around 150-200 grams.
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate plant, vigorous and well productive throughout the season.
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, with soil temperature between 20 and 25°C; transplant between April and May.
It adapts well to both open-field and greenhouse cultivation; it needs sturdy staking given the fruit size and regular watering.
The rounded, lightly ribbed fruits, typical of Marmande varieties, turn bright red at full ripeness: harvest once the skin is well coloured.
Like other Marmande varieties it can suffer from blossom-end rot under irregular watering; good canopy ventilation helps prevent downy mildew and powdery mildew.
Thanks to its dense, meaty flesh with a unique, sweet flavour, it is ideal both for fresh table use and for homemade sauces and preserves.
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, Pantano Delizia tomato has antioxidant properties beneficial to overall wellbeing.
