Siberian Tomato Half Pound Tomatoes in 59 Days! Plants set fruit at low temperatures, Produce extra early yields, frost resistant, too! Siberian tomatoes really do come from Siberia, producing juicy, flavorful, smooth, round fruit up to 1/2lb in size as early as 59 days from setting out plants. The plants produce delicious tomatoes ahead of other varieties because Siberians do not require high temperatures to set fruit like other tomatoes - just a few degrees above freezing is all the warmth they need. Amazing results from Siberian tomatoes were first reported in Alberta (Canada) with a growing season of only 90-100 frost free days. Plants came from North America from Russian visitors who brought seeds as gifts. The plants became popular in Calgary gardens where they survived spring frost that killed other tomatoes. These Siberian tomatoes are absolutely delicious for eating fresh, also excellent for sauces, juice and paste. A definite "must" for short-season areas of the north, a good wintertime tomato for the south and sensational extra-early tomatoes everywhere else.
