552. GARGAMEL
The Gargamel tomato is a striking, multi-colored variety developed by Phil Seneca of Good Mind Seeds in the United States. Named after the wizard from “The Smurfs,” this indeterminate plant produces plum-shaped fruits weighing between 60 to 120 grams. The tomatoes display a vibrant mix of red, orange, and yellow hues, accented by purplish-blue anthocyanin stripes, especially on the shoulders. Beyond its visual appeal, Gargamel offers a rich, sweet-tart flavor with hints of rhubarb or plum. The plant is noted for its vigor, disease resistance, and impressive storage capabilities, with fruits maintaining quality for up to two months when stored properly. Ideal for fresh consumption, salads, garnishes, and cooking, Gargamel is a versatile addition to any garden.
