Sausage Tomato

I bought one plant last spring and I can't remember what greenhouse I bought from . the one I thought, did not have them. They were so sweet and none juicy excelent for eating in a sandwich or just to slice up and eat like potatoe chips. Do you ship seeds to Canada if so who would it have been last season between Ottawa and the St.Laurence river so I could try there for a couple of plants. I spoke to Saunders green houuse and gave them your name and they were going to try for next year to order from you. Marilyn Canning

I started this tomato in October ... it's Jan and they are producing but the tomato is suffering from blossom end rot, and I have done calcium treatments so I am waiting to see the next round of small Vienna sausage length tomatoes, they were pretty small different sizes some small and some bigger some of them had pea size growths on the end and it was a little weird but I am hoping for success because I did save the seeds from the bigger tomatoes not very meaty and a little bit of gel, if they plumped up I can see them being great sauce tomatoes. Thank you.

This is the third season I have grown the Sausage tomato, and it is the finest paste tomato I have grown in Phoenix. Sausage sets flowers early in large bracts of more than five, and its indeterminate growth provides the perfect self-shade from our Phoenix sun. The fruit matures over time, so it's easy to keep up with the production, and has less blossom-end rot than any tomato I have grown here in the desert. The mature fruit holds well for a day or two even in 110-degree weather. It is a very meaty fruit with excellent flavor, and a low ratio of seeds, nicely balanced between acid and sugar. It dries well in the sun, holds its flavor in cooking, and makes the richest and most flavorful tomato paste of any variety I've tried. The perfect tomato.
