Gardeners' opinion
Favorite tomato variety 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 an excellent salad and tomato juice. Stored for a long time, you can pamper yourself with healthy berries for a long time. The promised characteristic of the variety is true. I continue the family tradition and have been planting my favorite tomato for the second year.

Good afternoon! I want to share my impressions with all tomato lovers. Description of the tomato variety Korneevsky pink corresponds to the picture on the package with seeds. A beautiful green bush grows with a bunch of large red tomatoes. Tomatoes grow beautifully regular in shape, sugar and juicy. Features - very tall stem and large fruits. Be sure to tie it up, otherwise the harvest 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 failed.
