Gardeners' opinion

Good day to all! I would like to recommend the Siberian Shangi to tomato lovers. She grew the variety in the North-West region, in greenhouse conditions. The plant has shown good hardiness and productivity. The tomato is not capricious, it required standard measures for the care of tall varieties. The berries are very large, sweet and juicy. One tomato for a salad was enough for a family of 4. I did not find any minuses for myself.
