I just bought these seeds at an Italian market in New Orleans this past weekend. I've never grown these before but it says they are imported from Italy. Has anyone ever grown these here before?

Wow, nice looking tomato, Pam!

I notice it is also an OP variety so be sure to save some seeds from your harvest so you can continue that one!

I bet Carolyn over in the Tomatoes Forum will certainly have some input on it. You might wanna post over there.

Franchi is an Italian brand of seeds, and these must have been developed by the company.
I do not grow this particular variety, but I grow a LOT of Franchi veggies.
Love them!
