An Amish heirloom, ideal for sauces. Amish paste is not mealy or grainy like many paste tomatoes, but has smooth, surprisingly sweet flesh, making is an excellent choice for eating fresh as well as cooking. It produces as good crop of red, mid-size plum type paste tomatoes.
Indeterminate, regular leaf, mid-season
Indeterminate plants are vigorous plants with a vining tendency. They set their fruits at intervals along their stems, and will readily grow side shoots and suckers (shoots from ground level). They need good, strong support, and it is advisable to remove the majority of the side shoots and suckers unless you have plenty of space and fertile soil to allow them to grow to their full potential. See the guide on pruning indeterminates in the resources section of the website for tips.
