Marmolada ribbed tomato is a sturdy, productive variety with globose, flattened fruit and marked ribbing, ideal both for the garden and for salads.

It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. A vigorous, indeterminate plant that needs staking.

Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March; transplant between April and May, once seedlings have a few true leaves.

It prefers loose, cool, well-irrigated soil; regular watering is needed and sturdy stakes help support the vigorous growth.

The fruits, with bright green skin turning red at ripeness, show deep characteristic ribbing and are hand-picked once well coloured.

Good ventilation between plants helps prevent downy and powdery mildew, alongside monitoring for aphids and red spider mite.

The red, firm and juicy flesh, with an aromatic and sweet flavour, is perfect both fresh in salads and cooked in sauces and purees.

Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, Marmolada ribbed tomato has antioxidant properties beneficial to overall wellbeing.
