Description
The bush tomato B11/23 is high-yielding and has golden-yellow fruits with a sweet and sour taste, an exciting aroma and a pleasant texture. The plant develops in a bush shape with dense foliage and many side shoots. Due to its compactness, we can recommend it for cultivation in containers.
The fruits, which weigh around 30g, are particularly suitable for fresh consumption and are also a real eye-catcher when processed into passata, for example. The main harvest takes place in august and september. After the first harvest, the shoots gradually lay down on the ground, which opens up the initially dense foliage and makes harvesting easier.
B11/23 has a very high field resistance to Phytophthora infestans. Our outdoor bush tomatoes can therefore be grown unprotected in the field. They are not thinned out and do not need to be tied up. A good supply of nutrients and a constant supply of water increase the yield, but they also perform well with reduced fertilization and irrigation.
