- San Marzano Tomatoes and why I love them!!
These might be my new favorite tomato! San Marzano is a plum or Roma-type tomato that is great for sauces and also for homemade fresh salsa! This is our first year growing them and they are going to make the rotation in our garden every year now! And bonus they are open-pollinated so you can save seeds!
Thanks to Honest Seed Company for setting us up with seeds this year!

We actually added these to our seeds for 2024. They look amazing!
We loved them, great taste and texture and the plants were very productive.
They make the best sauce!
Good to hear!
They do I'm here to tell you I just made some. Blown away the flesh is less watery than Roma's and it's more of a deep red. But I did get a lot of blossom end rot.
I've been growing them for years. The best for tomato sauce and paste. Much larger than romas too.
We are happy so far!!
Beautiful. Thanks. Thinking of starting these
We loved them! A LOT!
First time growing these in Massachusetts and they are doing great. The plants are loaded!
I love that about them, so many fruit on these 2 little plants!
Impressive!!
Do you have a video showing your watering setup and growing structures- much appreciated
This is a video I did on my watering system:

San morazano tomatoes were a gift from the viceroyalty of Peru to the king of Naples. They thrive in volcanic soil..
The hoop squares in the video maybe for climbing plants
Yes that is my cattle panel trellis.
Have you tried the Amish paste tomatoes? New to me this year and far surpasses the Roma - they are very large, no end rot and plants are loaded. I’ll also see if I can find the san marzanos next year
I haven't tried those yet. I will have to get them on my list.
The best. Sauce or salad, the favorite.
Good to here!
Those are beautiful! Mine got BER at first and the tomatoes were tiny and I didn’t get very many. I’m pretty sure my tomato bed was too crowded and after I amended the soil (top dressed?) things improved but then we got 108 temps for weeks so now it’s kind of stalled out entirely. Ah the joys of living in the south right now! I’m going to clear out the bed a bit and maybe it’ll perk back up. It needs more space to grow! My cherry tomatoes were encroaching as were my Roma plants. 😬My bad I’m afraid. I’m learning about proper spacing and trellising still. They’re also shaded during the midday so they don’t melt in the heat which at least keeps them alive so maybe they can recover and start producing properly for the fall garden. At least I hope!
Yo, Rick! Great! How tall does the plant get?
They are indeterminate so they will just keep growing. Ours easily out grew our 7 foot trellis by a couple of feet by the time last season ended.
Did you single stem them?
Nope that's too technical for my taste. I just let them go and prune what I can't keep on the trellis.
Would you show the layout, how you built your garden, and what is surrounding it?
I’m trying them this year. A little slow due to all our rain in upstate ny
Ours have been our earliest, but we did start plant them outside in mid April in Wall O waters so that gave them an early boost.
I grew these this year for a first too, and got to eat one with tacos. They aren't juicy, but very meaty. I was surprised considering the nuts rained we've had in Ontario. Can we save seeds?
They are open pollinated so you can. If they are planted close to other tomatoes there will be a chance of cross pollination, but fairly slim chance.
@@StoneyAcresGardening how exciting, I love saving seeds
I have determinate San Marzano seeds that I just started for a fall crop . I have more that I will start in spring (both determinate and indeterminate). I hope mine produce as well as yours.
I hope so too!
Is that a rebar or tube greenhouses.
I'm sorry in not sure what you are referring too?? I don't have a green house.
Is this the determinate or indeterminate variety? I found some seeds to buy and it says it comes either way. Not sure which to buy.
It is indeterminate, but not super aggressive. My plants last year got maybe 8 feet tall. It was fairly easy to keep them under control with a little pruning every few weeks.
I certainly like San Marzano but I've been fighting BER on them for several years. Skipped them this year just because of that. Maybe it is water, and not getting enough calcium uptake, I don't know.
Well that answers my question as to weather resistance is breed into them.
I dunno. Planted in May, but just not growing much and no tomatoes, but then the other types aren't doing much either. Ohio 6a.
Bummer
I bet the shelf life of the San Marzanas are better.
I tried them for 2 years with virtually no success. Some of the plants died in early July and I one got maybe 3 tomatoes off the plants that survived, and those had no taste. Maybe they don’t like my soil.
Could be your soil. Or maybe watering??
My garden is tall raised beds filled with mostly compost, watered with a drip system on timers. I haven’t had much luck with Roma tomatoes in general. This year I’m growing Jersey Devil (Roma-type) for the first time, and so far no ripe fruit but maybe it’s a late producer. And it’s been a very weird year. I’ll try San Marizano again next year!
Roma is a cross between San Marzano and the Pan American tomato, so no they are not Roma style.
Those are not SanMartzano tomatoes possibly plum or Roma
I'm 100 % sure they are San Marzano
