About Farmer: Roma tomatoes have an elongated egg-like shape, and
they grow to about three inches long. Their bright red, smooth and thick
skin houses meaty flesh with few seeds, high sugar and acid levels, and
low moisture content compared to other tomato varieties, ideal for
cooking down into a tomato sauce or paste. The disease-resistant plants
grow to an average of four to six feet, and because this is a determinate
plant, the fruits will grow to a set height and ripen about the same time,
producing one large crop typically toward the end of the spring season.
