NZH Tomatoes are native to Central and South America. Mexicans being the first to domesticate and use the tomato in culinary pursuits, the Spanish took the tomato out into world after colonization. This tomato is an older variety first found in New Zealand in 1945 at the Carlton Seed Shop which was located on K Road in Auckland. A beefsteak type, with excellent flavour and good for slicing or in salads. A heavy cropper with good disease resistance. Indeterminate type can grow to 2m high.
