Opinion of gardeners

Favorite variety of tomato since childhood - Korneevsky rectangular. Ripe fruits are very juicy, sweet and fleshy. Harvesting is a pleasure. One tomato can weigh up to 800 grams. The berry is not suitable for canning. Ripe fruits make excellent salad and tomato juice.It is stored for a long time, you can pamper yourself with he althy berries for a long time. The promised characteristics of the variety are true. I continue the family tradition and have been planting my favorite tomato for the second year already.

Good day! I want to share my impressions with all tomato lovers. The description of the Korneevsky pink tomato variety corresponds to the image on the package with seeds. A beautiful green bush grows, with a bunch of large red tomatoes. Tomatoes grow beautiful regular shape, sugary and juicy. Features ― very high stalk and large fruits. Be sure to tie up, otherwise the crop will be lost. In warm summers, they feel great on open ground, in cool summers they can be planted in a greenhouse. Care is not difficult, the variety is not whimsical. I have been growing tomatoes for 6 years, the variety has never let me down.
