Susong Kalabaw

   From the Philippines. Translated as "carabao tits". Carabao are relatives of the domesticated water buffalo and still are an important facet of agriculture in the rice paddies of southeast Asia. Susong Kalabaw is a little known tomato cultivar from the Philippines, not to be confused with the fruits of an evergreen tree that are known by the same colloquial name. Susong Kalabaw are small, healthy plants with a heavy fruitset of red cherry tomatoes and a resistance to early blight. The fruit are seedy and somewhat acidic although not excessively so. I typically prefer my cherry tomatoes to go into salads and these would be well suited for that purpose.
