TOMATO – PURPLE CALABASH
Lycopersicon esculentum
Known as the ugliest but best-tasting tomato you will ever eat. The exceptional sweet flavour from a weird in appearance Heritage Tomato. Purple blue wrinkled fruits blushed brown or chocolate when ripe for eating. The ugly appearance hides a real treasure. Typical of tomatoes pictured in 16th Century Herbal books.
