Black Krim tomato plant – a young plant raised by us

Black Krim – special features of the variety

Black Krim is a traditional Russian variety, internationally known mostly as Black Krim or Noire de Crimée. Its large fruit ripens dark red to brown-red and often carries green-brown shoulders. Warmth and direct sun can intensify the dark colouring.

Fruit, flavour and use

The flat-round beefsteak tomatoes usually weigh around 225 to 450 grams. Their juicy flesh has a full-bodied, spicy and lightly smoky aroma with balanced sweetness and acidity. The variety is especially good fresh for salad, caprese, burgers and sandwiches.

Growing in a bed or pot

The indeterminate plant reaches around 150 to 180 centimetres and needs a sturdy support. One or two main shoots make care easier; support heavy fruit clusters additionally. A warm, sunny and, where possible, rain-sheltered spot supports ripening. In a pot, use at least 25 litres of substrate.

A tomato young plant, raised by us

We raise the Black Krim tomato plant ourselves at our family business in Illmitz. After shipping, the young plant should first stand in a bright, sheltered spot and be gradually acclimatised to direct sun and wind. It only goes outdoors permanently once no more late frosts are expected.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Highly recommended!

Absolutely recommended! I’m completely impressed with this chili plant seller. The quality of the plants is outstanding – strong, healthy, and clearly grown with passion and expertise.

The absolute highlight for me, however, was that this seller is one of the few places that offers my all-time favorite variety, the Lemon Drop chili. I’ve finally found a reliable source for this fantastic variety!

Shipping was fast, and the plants were perfectly packaged, so they arrived in excellent condition. I can wholeheartedly recommend this seller to any chili lover looking for top quality and fast delivery. I will definitely be ordering here again!

longterm customer

I’ve been buying my chili powder from the Tschida family for years, and it’s the best you can get. The family is always very friendly and helpful as well. I can wholeheartedly recommend their products to everyone.

#1 Spice supplier

Super friendly service when buying chili plants, and the products are truly excellent. My #1 source for heat :) The ultimate compliment came from an Indian colleague who said that with Tschida chili sauces, he can finally enjoy the level of heat he knows from home here in Europe!

Simply top!

Tschida Tschili – where heat and flavor come together in perfect harmony. The chili products are simply outstanding. I love spicy food, but many products just burn your tongue without delivering any real flavor. With Tschida Tschili, it’s completely different. For an experienced palate, everything is very enjoyable. The flavors are perfectly matched to the level of heat, resulting in truly delicious products.

I visit the farm from time to time as part of my culinary tours with groups. What can I say? Jan and his family are simply the perfect hosts – friendly, authentic, and genuinely local. I always really enjoy visiting you!
