Features

notes

A tomato with few seeds sounds rather an enigma, but Principe Borghese is exactly that - an heirloom plant with a low moisture content bred primarily for sun drying so that the flavour is intensified. The plant is vigorous and bushy with fruit that can be eaten straight from the garden, or oven baked where its rich, classic taste can be fully appreciated.
