The plant sets uniformly shaped, oblong, 4- to 5-inch fruits that weigh 3- to 8-ounces. The fleshy fruits are very meaty and flavorful, with a good Roma flavor, perfect for eating fresh or cooked or for canning and freezing. Tomatoes are considered a superfood for their nutrient rich content, having a high (top 20) Aggregate Nutrient Density Index score (ANDI), or micronutrient-per-calorie density. Tomatoes are a good source of vitamin C and provide vitamin A and potassium. They also contain carotenoid lycopene, beta-carotene, phenolic acids, and flavonoids. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTypically grown as an annual, Zenzei, an herbaceous tender perennial, is a member of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), which contains plants that typically grow in temperate to tropical regions.

Great for smaller gardens, the bushy plant is compact, only growing to around 72 inches long.
