San Marzano Giano tomato is an excellent giant San Marzano variety, with a healthy, productive plant and elongated fruit that can exceed 170 grams.
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate, healthy and productive plant, suited to both open field and greenhouse.
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March; transplant between April and May, with generous organic fertilising beforehand.
It needs sturdy staking given its indeterminate habit; water steadily from the fruit-swelling stage onward, avoiding waterlogging.
The elongated fruits, which can exceed 170 grams, are harvested once the colour is fully and evenly red.
It shows lower sensitivity to blossom-end rot than other San Marzano varieties and is resistant to several root diseases.
It is the classic tomato for fresh salad use, but also suits sauces and preserves thanks to its tasty flesh.
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, San Marzano Giano tomato has antioxidant properties beneficial to overall wellbeing.
