80 days, indeterminate — Italian variety from the early 1800s. Very unique tomato, deeply ribbed shape with bright red fruits. The word costoluto is italian for ribbed. 6-8oz fruits. Delicious slightly tart flavor. Performs exceptionally well in hot weather, but will continue to produce even once the weather turns cooler. This has been a family favorite of ours in Texas for many years.

The fruit is about 3 inches—almost the size of a peach—with a yellow rind and fruity-tasting white flesh. They start out green and then turn yellow as they ripen.
You can spot a perfectly ripe melon in the same way you would a mango. It should feel heavier than it looks and have a slightly sweet aroma. Press gently on the end furthest from the stem—this should be slightly soft. Most of mine pulled away from the vine very easily.
