Jersey Devil Roma Paste Tomato
Growing Jersey Devil Roma Paste Tomato
‘Jersey Devil’ is an heirloom paste tomato prized for its unusual tapered shape and exceptionally meaty flesh. Bright red fruits resemble banana peppers and contain very few seeds, while productive plants deliver generous harvests.
Start ‘Jersey Devil’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 24 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety thrives during warm summer weather.
Ready to harvest in about 85 days, pick fruits once they reach full size and mature bright red color.
Sweet, solid, and meaty, ‘Jersey Devil’ is excellent for sauces, salsa, and other cooked tomato dishes.
