“I always liked curiosity because of my special taste. All my family also love this tomato very much, therefore, in the garden we work together all the time. I use curiosity for salads.
From one bush about 2.3 meters high, you can get about 15 kg. fruits, which also can not but rejoice. I recommend it to all those who do not want to suffer from caring for their tomatoes "

I met “Dikovinka” not so long ago. I decided to just take some new variety, because I always grew ordinary tomatoes on the site. I trusted this, and, in principle, was glad.
I am not very good at raising tomatoes, and indeed, I do not consider myself a gardener, but it was Dikovinka who managed to do without serious problems. In planting and care, this tomato is very unpretentious - that's for sure ”
