Yielding heavy crops on 4-6 ft. plants, the Illini Star tomato offers deep red fruits that boast an excellent flavor profile, good disease- and split-resistance, making it highly recommended for both market growers and home gardeners. The abundance of deep red fruits with their sweet flavor makes the Illini Star a great option for canning, while also being delicious when eaten fresh off the vine. With its robust resistance to common garden challenges, the Illini Star tomato rightfully earns its reputation as a standout variety, underscoring its status as a genuine 'star' in any garden setting.
