Overview

Mountain Magic is an F1 cocktail tomato from North Carolina State University, sold through Bejo Seeds, bred to combine blight resistance with real flavor. The compact indeterminate plant sets uniform, crack-resistant red fruit of about two ounces, high in sugar with a sweet-tart balance, and the rin gene extends shelf life. Resistance includes late blight (Ph-2 and Ph-3 genes), early blight, Fusarium races 1 and 2, and Verticillium race 1, which makes it a good bet in humid, blight-prone gardens. Stake or cage and pick as fruit turns bright red. About 66 days from transplant.
