This is a compact/semi-dwarf indeterminate variety, averaging 3-5 feet in height - plants are fairly stocky. 

The 3-5 oz fruits are semi-heart shaped and start off green with dark green stripes and striking purple anthocyanin splashes (where exposed to sun). As they ripen, the base color transitions to a dark brick-red to pink, the green stripes turn gold, and the anthocyanin deepens to black.  Ya'll, this is one of those tomatoes that is as delicious as it is STUNNING.  

The skin is incredibly smooth and shiny.  These tomatoes are so stunning they look fake but trust - they are so real and their rich & complex flavor is OUTSTANDING (yes, worthy of all caps!).  The interior is very meaty with a great balance of richness, acid and sweetness. Outstanding shelf-life, they can last 2-3 weeks on the counter. 

Tomatoes thrive in full sun and well-draining, fertile soil.  Plant your tomato DEEP to  encourage a stronger root system. Amend with compost or worm castings and mulch at the base to ensure good soil moisture for the growing season. 
Staking is highly recommended - Square cages, bamboo poles or the Florida weave are all great options.
