Cuor di Bue is an outstanding multi-purpose tomato. I live in zone 8b. I started Cuor de Bue, indoors, on Valentines Day. Starts were moved to raised beds May 1st. I started harvesting the first flush of large tomatoes the third week of July. Excellent quality. The plants are have an excellent second flush so there will be tomatoes through September. Highly recommended.

Spring/Early Summer 2022 Northern Willamette Valley was cloudy, cold, and damp. Been a tough year for most of the vegetables we planted, but this tomato has plowed through the lousy weather and is producing ripe fruit the first week of August. The yield is heavy, and I've had almost no blossom end rot . Great multi-purpose tomato that ripens faster than you might think.

I live in the Northern Willamette Valley, about 18 miles south of Portland, OR. This summer, 2017, I grew 6 different varieties of tomato in Grass Roots Fabric Pots (Sacramento, CA). All of the plants grew well in the fabric pots; however, due to the pots breathability, I had to water more than I would have liked. This resulted in a severe case of blossom end rot on all of the tomatoes EXCEPT Cuor di Bue. The Cuor di Bue was productive, producing an early crop of high quality 4-6 oz fruit that did was not subject to blossom end rot. The flavor of Cuor di Bue was excellent. I will grow this variety again... Very pleased
