534. POLARIS
The Polaris tomato is a black beefsteak variety developed by Canadian breeder Karen Olivier. This indeterminate, potato leaf plant yields large, round to oblate fruits weighing between 150 to 350 grams. The tomatoes exhibit a deep purple skin with green shoulders and dense, juicy, red-purple flesh. Renowned for its rich, complex, and sweet flavor, Polaris is well-suited for slicing and fresh consumption. The plant demonstrates vigor and productivity, performing well in cooler climates and offering a generous mid-season harvest approximately 75 days after transplanting.
