Tomatoes, Tres Cantos



We've grown these delicious Spanish tomatoes for 2 years now they are what we call beef tomatoes. The first year they didn't do too well we thought because the glasshouse wasn't warm enough. This year we made sure the vents kept it on the warm side and they are only now ripening to a glut although we've had a few in August.
They tend to ripen a bit late with us but they're worth waiting for , a very fleshy large tomato with few seeds and a really nice flavour.
Any one else tried them?
