Tomato Bosque Blue Bumblebee Seeds (Solanum lycopersicum)
General Description: Tomato Bosque Blue Bumblebee is a strikingly beautiful and flavorful variety known for its deep blue-purple shoulders that contrast with bright red-orange hues as the fruit ripens. Developed from anthocyanin-rich breeding lines, this unique variety is a favorite among gardeners and market growers for its exceptional appearance and taste. The anthocyanin pigmentation, responsible for the blue tones, is enhanced by sunlight exposure, making each fruit a visual masterpiece.
Plant Characteristics: This indeterminate variety produces vigorous vines that continue growing and fruiting throughout the season. The small to medium-sized fruits typically range from 40 to 70 grams, featuring a smooth, slightly elongated shape with firm, juicy flesh. The plants are highly productive and set fruit in clusters, ensuring a continuous harvest.
Taste and Benefits: Bosque Blue Bumblebee tomatoes offer a well-balanced flavor, combining a mild sweetness with a pleasant tangy undertone. The anthocyanins present in the skin contribute to their high antioxidant content, making them a nutritious choice. Their firm texture and juicy interior make them ideal for fresh consumption, salads, and gourmet dishes.
Cultivation Recommendations: • Sowing: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Maintain a soil temperature of 21–26°C (70–78°F) for optimal germination. • Transplanting: Harden off seedlings before transplanting outdoors once the risk of frost has passed. Space plants 50–60 cm apart. • Sunlight & Watering: Requires full sun for best anthocyanin development. Water consistently but avoid overwatering to prevent splitting. • Support: Use stakes or cages to support vigorous growth and improve airflow. • Maturation: Fruits begin ripening approximately 75–85 days after transplanting.
Uses and Benefits: These visually stunning tomatoes are perfect for salads, gourmet plating, and fresh eating.
