Tomato reviews
The Superbanan tomato variety is widely known in the circles of experienced summer residents. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the most interesting opinions of gardeners about him.
I read reviews on the Internet about the excellent yield of the Superbanan tomato and decided to plant it in my summer cottage. The crop was really good, but it was not so easy to get it. In the greenhouse, the tomato grew up to two meters high and interfered with other plants. This is a big minus for me. But the tomatoes are still very tasty, so next year I will go to the experiment and plant Superbanana in the open field, although this is not recommended by experts. (Olga Dmitrievna, Yoshkar-Ola)
I heard about this tomato from a friend, made inquiries. I liked the characteristic and description of the variety, I decided to plant it in my country house. But she made a serious mistake by planting Superbanan outside the greenhouse. The result is late blight. And a friend's tomatoes in a greenhouse grew large, juicy and sweet. Therefore, I advise you to grow it exclusively in greenhouse conditions. (Rose, Naberezhnye Chelny)

Before planting "Superbanana", I advise you to first learn about the features of this tomato. Namely, that it can grow in height by more than 2 meters.

So maybe it was worth it. (Sergey Semenovich, Tver)
