Roma VF is an excellent paste-type open-pollinated tomato. Popular for canning or for making your own tomato sauce, juice, soups or for dehydrating. Plants bear dozens of plum shaped, bright red 6oz fruit which have meaty interiors and very few seeds. Maturity is about 75 days from transplanting. Determinate plants are shorter and do not require staking, although they do benefit from some support or cages. They have a much more concentrated harvest. These are ideal for commercial growers or for home gardeners who want a lot of tomatoes at one time for preserving. Adapted for the United States and Canada, it was originally introduced in 1963.
