While we do have some other heat tolerant slicers in our catalog, we added Estiva because it has a very robust disease package and its known for its ability to set fruit in extremely high temperatures. Often times when people plant tomatoes here they will stop making fruit quite early in spring because they wont set fruit in the higher temperatures, so these have the chance to either be planted later in the year, or to continue producing fruit for longer into the hot months. 7-9 ounce tomatoes resist cracking, have a good flavor and the plant is a high producer. Fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt and tobacco mosaic virus resistant.
