“I heard positive characteristics of the Simpatyaga variety from my neighbors in the country. I decided to grow a couple of bushes on my site. In the end, I regretted adding so little salt. The tomato turned out to be really worthy. Easy to care for, not capricious. And the fruits are equally suitable for both fresh salads and all kinds of homemade preparations.”

“I planted tomato seedlings in early March in strict accordance with the planting calendar. I planted them in the garden beds in May. I tied it up, but did not remove the extra shoots, because... there were practically none. I reaped an excellent harvest by my standards - 4.5 kg of fairly large tomatoes per square meter. Tomatoes are ideal for salads, pickling and juicing. Next year I’ll plant Pretty again and more.”
