Mini Marzano

Mini Marzano condenses the beloved San Marzano character into a tiny, container-friendly package. Micro-to-mini plants around 10–20 inches tall bear elongated, meaty fruits with low gel and robust, classic 'Marzano' flavor. Crack resistance and good post-harvest keeping make these little plums versatile for fresh eating, roasting, or quick sauces. Despite the compact habit, vines can be quite productive with bright light and regular feeding, especially in 1–2 gallon pots or baskets. Expect an early to mid-season harvest window and eye-catching clusters that invite frequent picking. Fruits shine in both fresh salads and slow‑simmered sauces where their natural balance comes forward. Plants respond well to consistent moisture and mulching, which helps reduce blossom‑end stress and keeps fruit quality high. Give sturdy support and prune lightly to maintain airflow and make harvest easier as clusters build.
