I really like the De Barao varieties until this year I grew several of its varieties, and I note that each of them has its own privileges. This season, the “De Barao Imperial” planted struck the yield, the plants seemed to be plastered with beautiful bright tomatoes. The care is no different from other tall tomatoes, they all need garter and removal of shoots, and rarely, what sort of variety can do without top dressing. From one bush for the season I collected 14 kg of delicious tomatoes, it is noteworthy that they do not overripe on the bush. Close the dressing for the first courses and tomato juice.

For my taste, these are the best tomatoes, we plant them in the garden for more than 5 years, they have never failed, even in the cool summer. One drawback is that the variety is not early, but then after 3 months you can enjoy delicious fruits. For storage, it is better to tear off brown, then you can eat them until the new year.
