    Answer

      As far as I know, these tomatoes grow up to 1 m in open ground and up to 1.5 m in a greenhouse. These are low-growing varieties.

    This year, I ordered the Raspberry Miracle tomato series by mail and grew seedlings. Everything turned out very well. The seedlings didn't get sick and transplanted well into the greenhouse. Now, my whole family is enjoying these wonderful tomatoes. They're a joy to behold, delicious, and sweet. I'll definitely be ordering seeds for next year. I have tall tomatoes, all five varieties, but the tomatoes themselves vary in size, with some large and some smaller. I'm very pleased with this variety. Thank you, Gardens of Russia!!!

  6. Larisa

    I really liked the tomatoes, especially the Raspberry Paradise.
    In the greenhouse – 1.5-1.7 m. Different varieties – different weights. Some are larger, some are smaller. There were none under 200 grams. Tasty, sweet.
    But I think taste depends largely on care. Last year, all my tomatoes, of different varieties, tasted the same, average. This year, I read up on how to care for them so they're tasty, and—voila!—most of them are tasty and sweet, just the way I wanted. To avoid thickets, plant them spacing out, and keep the tomatoes to 1-2 stems.

    Answer

    Another big advantage of these tomatoes is their resistance to late blight. I gave a colleague at work a couple of Raspberry Miracle plants. All the tomatoes in her greenhouse this year were infected with late blight. Only the Raspberry Miracle was untouched.

  8. Love

    This year, I ordered tomato seeds from the "Raspberry Miracle" series. There was no "miracle." The price doesn't match the quality. All tomato varieties taste the same, or rather, lack thereof. No matter how hard I tried, they never reached the stated weight, and they quickly became infected with late blight.

  9. Tamara

    In 2015, I planted the entire raspberry miracle series. The photos in the article don't match what I got. Mine were round, like balls, there were a lot of them, they all tasted the same, didn't crack, were firm, and didn't get blight. I like large, sweet ones, so maybe that's why I had this reaction.

      Ordering is very easy, online. They ship worldwide. Find a website called "Gardens of Russia." They're located in the Chelyabinsk region. They have a lot of stuff there.

      Don't order anything from them. I've encountered this more than once: they'll send you dry tubers that nothing helps revive, or rotten ones, or even the product is listed on the delivery note but isn't in the package—a complete scam. Now all this stuff is sold in stores.

        CRAP!!! I've been ordering seedlings, seeds, and potatoes from them for years! Everything is top-notch!!! Don't mislead people! And keep in mind that seedlings and tubers are living organisms, sent by mail... a lot depends on the shipping too... Maybe something weaker will lose its marketable appearance... but I don't remember that ever happening to me. Everything always arrives in excellent condition!!! Everything is packaged perfectly!

    I heard a lot about the "Raspberry Miracle" hype and planted some this year. Of the eight, only two weak ones emerged, even though they were treated with something green. But all my seeds germinated perfectly. The "Raspberry Miracle" packages don't say anything about priming. I won't listen to anyone else—everyone knows good seeds without the hype. I don't recommend it.

    I wanted to grow the Raspberry Miracle too. I bought the Raspberry Bison, prepared the soil, opened the package, and there were zero seeds. I'd long since sworn off this company, having been burned more than once, but now that's it, I won't buy anything from them.

    Answer

  13. Olga

    I won't be buying anything from Gardens of Russia again. I once ordered seedlings, and they sent me absolutely wretched plants, and the wrong variety at that. Only half of them survived, the rest dried up, so it's understandable what could have grown from those wimps. Well, as they say, we don't learn from our mistakes! I fell for the "Miracle Tomatoes" ad; it was so beautifully described. I've been growing tomatoes for a long time, and I have a lot of experience, but I've never had such crap. Luckily, I was smart enough to plant other varieties; they saved the situation, otherwise I would have been left without tomatoes. They say it's overly hyped, it's all complete nonsense! For some reason, we don't want to learn from others' mistakes, and that's what we get! Now I avoid that company!!!

    I planted them for the first time and all 15 have sprouted. The harvest is far away. There are a lot of negative reviews. Apparently, the manufacturer needs to provide detailed information on how to care for them. I really ask for this and I think everyone agrees with this. Please help us write only good reviews about you. For some reason, I believe that the varieties are good.

    Could you please tell me how many bushes should be planted per square meter for the "Raspberry Wine" variety? I can't find a description of this variety, from the "Raspberry Miracle" series, anywhere.

    Answer
  16. Elena

    It's a shame the "Gardens of Russia" seed packets have so little information about tomato characteristics! There's no information about the height of the hybrids, how much to plant per square meter, or how many trunks to grow the variety into. The seeds all germinated well, but two packets were mixed up, which was obvious from the seed size. Half the seeds were large, the other half were very small. "We'll see what happens," as they say.

    The "Gardens of Russia" seedlings are, in a word, complete SHIT. I bought a cherry tree, and a piece of junk with red leaves that smelled like bird cherry grew. I wasted my money and time. I wrote two complaints to these bastards, and they haven't responded. The currants have holes in their trunks. The grapes grow and die. The seeds are incredibly expensive. BE AFRAID, PEOPLE.

      I also ordered ornamental shrub and strawberry seedlings from "Gardens of Russia." Some of them were immediately obvious upon receipt that they couldn't be saved. I tried to save others, trying to nurse them back to health, but nothing worked. I contacted them in writing immediately upon receiving the package, and they suggested filing a complaint. I didn't waste time, as it was clear they didn't care whether I would continue to buy from them. They charged me once for damaged goods, and that was it. I no longer use their services; there are plenty of reputable online stores these days.

    I ordered the Raspberry Miracle variety for the first year. All the seeds worked. All the varieties except the Raspberry Bunny have good seedlings. They've already been affected by late blight. I recommend the Early Giant variety. I picked my first tomatoes in mid-June, and they produced fruit until October.

    Answer
  23. Valentina

    All the seeds I planted have sprouted. They're now growing into gorgeous bushes in the greenhouse. The tops have split into two. That's good; I planned to grow them as two trunks. I'm picking off the side shoots and rooting them. These are additional plants. The first clusters are already blooming. I don't know if I'll enter them in the competition. Maybe I'll try them on the ones growing in the open garden beds. It's a shame I can't show photos. I live in the Krasnodar region. Every time I pass by the greenhouse, I stop to admire the tomato plants. I also have Sidorkina tomatoes growing wild there. I ordered them from the "Rare Tomato Seeds" website. I'm surprised why some of them don't grow well.

    Answer
    1. Lyudmila

      That's right, "admiring the bushes." But the taste won't be to your liking. Some poet concocts poetic descriptions of each variety, like songs and fairy tales! An amazing ability to deceive poor gardeners. He'd be better off publishing books instead of deceiving people. Although he has enormous talent. He probably has no idea that he not only misleads people, swindling them out of their money, but also plunges them into despair, because we grow all season, hoping that his (or her) descriptions are true, wasting time, health, hopes, money, and then nothing but anger at these ruthless scammers, at our gullibility, at the summer we missed. And they even write good reviews about themselves. All our neighbors fell for this company and lost. Well, at least one of them got what they were promised. And they're all experienced, the harvests are excellent, until they get involved with these "Gardens." Where is the prosecutor's office looking? It's time to sue. They used to have a different name and address, and gardening magazines complained about them back then, but they changed the sign and started pumping money again! Inhumans!

    I planted five varieties of the "Raspberry Miracle" series. They all sprouted at the same time, earlier than other tomato varieties, and developed at the same time and faster than the others. I planted them in the greenhouse at the end of April. They're growing, turning lush and blooming, but... They've been blooming for three weeks now, but there are still no ovaries. The greenhouse is open, bees are flying in, and the temperature and humidity outside are average. I can't figure out why; this is the first time such a miracle has happened to tomatoes. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem?

  25. Evgeny

    SCAMMERS! I ordered the "Raspberry Miracle" series over a Moscow phone (I couldn't get through to Chelyabinsk). I received them, planted them, and they're growing. Three of the packages turned out to contain cherry tomatoes, even though they're not included in the series and I didn't order them. The other tomatoes didn't match the descriptions. A complete scam. I hope I never get in touch again!

    Answer
  26. Olga

    I also didn't like the Raspberry Miracle tomatoes. They're not tasty, they crack, and they don't match the description. Two out of ten varieties have rotten tops, and some varieties have tomatoes the size of a chicken egg with only tops.

    All my tomato plants from Russian gardens yielded a magnificent harvest. I planted six different varieties, half in the greenhouse and half in the open ground. I'm very pleased.

    In 2015, I purchased Raspberry Miracle tomato seeds from Gardens of Russia. All three series, each with five packets of different varieties.

  29. Olga

    Thank you, I read the reviews of this tomato series just in time, otherwise I was about to order from a joint purchase store in our city. Now I'll do without them. I myself was caught by a substandard variety from this company. In 2015, I bought "Energy" tomatoes from them, and I really liked them. They yielded a harvest quickly and in abundance, the bushes were covered in them, all the neighbors were envious. This year I planted them again and was a complete disappointment. A strange thing grew: three tomatoes per bush, and the bush itself is completely different, and the tomatoes are a different shape. Okay, I planted four of them, but the neighbor for whom I also bought these seeds filled half her greenhouse with them, so I felt guilty all summer. This year I ordered several varieties from Myazina, including "Energy", I hope she doesn't have a substandard variety.

    It's unclear why the reviews are so mixed. Perhaps there's a lack of information on growing techniques? Producers need to take this into account if they value their reputation. I just ordered seeds without reading the reviews, and I'm already regretting it. I really want this to work.

    I planted 2nd and 3rd series "Raspberry Miracle" tomatoes. The germination rate was about 80%, and they didn't suffer from blackleg. I planted them in a greenhouse and half-open ground. The fruits are almost all the same, regardless of variety. The only one that impressed me with the yield was the "Yagoda-raspberry" (Raspberry Berry) from the greenhouse. The fruits are firm, a rich pink color, and have a long shelf life (the last ones were eaten until the end of November). Well, as they say, it's a matter of taste...

    Succumbing to the hype and advertising, I grew all five of the RASPBERRY MIRACLE tomatoes from the first series. Considering their excellent characteristics and price (50 rubles per package!), I approached growing them with sheer trepidation! And the result? No special achievements: yes, beautiful tomatoes, perfectly matched, ready to sell. However, despite the beautiful tops, the fruits are nothing special, neither in taste nor size. What 300-400, or even 300-700 grams, was mentioned in the advertisement is unclear. Since growing conditions weren't specified on the packages and were described only in general terms on the manufacturer's website, I planted three roots of each hybrid, trained them into two stems and a single stem, removed side shoots, fertilized, etc. – basically, everything required for full growth. Surprisingly, all the fruits were practically identical and far from the advertised size, and there were only a small number of them. Meanwhile, in the same greenhouse, under the same growing conditions, tomatoes of proven varieties (Pink Elephant, Orange Heart, etc.) were much larger. Whoever created the colorful advertising for these unremarkable raspberry tomatoes is a true master of their craft! Praise! The only thing I admired was the impeccable shape of all the fruits—they were all identical, just like the ones you'd find in crates at the market during tomato season for 45 rubles per kg!

    Hello! I've been using this company's services for several years now, primarily ordering flower seeds and ornamental shrubs, which have thrived and adorn our large flower garden. My nine-year-old granddaughter, Karina, enjoys helping me with the flower garden and vegetable garden. Together, we selected seeds from the "Spring 2016" catalog and decided to try growing tomatoes from the "Golden Raspberry Miracle" collection. We ordered series #3. Every single one of the seeds sprouted. My granddaughter and I planted half of each variety in open ground and the other half in a polycarbonate greenhouse. We've never had so many tomatoes! It's a miracle of miracles!!! We picked tomatoes every day! Every member of our family ate their fill of tomatoes every day! And our family, including our children and grandchildren, totals 14. Our neighbor kept popping into our garden and marveling at how our bushes were bending under the weight of the fruit.

    We sowed the seeds on March 15th and followed the temperature regime for growing seedlings as recommended in the "Seeds 2016" catalog. While the seedlings were growing on the windowsill, Karina and I studied magazines and other literature on growing tomatoes online. Then we grew the plants, relying on the experience of amateur gardeners and the recommendations of gardening scientists. First, we treated the entire greenhouse from top to bottom with a solution of phytosporin (last year, phytosporin "worked" well in our greenhouse). We fertilized the soil with humus prepared in a compost heap and also watered it with a solution of potassium permanganate, and then with a solution of phytosporin the day before planting. The plants were planted in two rows and trained into two stems. During the entire growing period, the tomatoes were fed three times: 1 - two weeks after planting; 2 - when the ovary formed on the second cluster; 3 - at the very beginning of ripening of the fruits on the first brush, use herbal “compote” with the addition of chicken manure and wood ash.

    During flowering, we sprayed the plants twice with "Zavyaz" (Ovary), once every two weeks with a phytosporin solution, and twice with whey with added iodine. We watered them with a bucket of water every five days, dividing the bucket into three portions. A few days after planting, we mulched the soil under the plants with old hay, then added a mulch of mown and dried grass. The greenhouse smells so deliciously of fresh hay! We regularly removed side shoots and leaves to leave the plants bare-legged. During flowering, my husband, Nikolai, worked as a beekeeper, shaking the plants to promote pollination. We opened and closed the greenhouse strictly according to the thermometer. I must honestly admit that never before in our gardening experience have we tended our tomatoes so meticulously! But the results are clear. Truly, "no stomping, no reap." To some extent, we owe this result to our granddaughter.

    There were times when I wanted to break the rules and let things slide, but her passion, her desire for a good harvest, and her tenacity kept her working and working. The "Raspberry Bunny" variety didn't produce large fruits, but there were 12 on a cluster, even though it only weighed 1 kg. We had to cut it off because the cluster broke under the weight.

    There were some problems. First, the tomatoes planted in the open ground under plastic froze. We planted them early. May was warm, and for some reason we assumed there wouldn't be any frost in June. My advice for the future is to think twice and plant tomatoes in the open ground no earlier than June 10th, as recommended. Second, three or four clusters set very well in the greenhouse, then they were empty, then the fifth or sixth set again. I think the reason is that the temperature in the greenhouse at that time was approaching 40 degrees Celsius. There are no upper vents. We don't know what to do yet.
    In addition to the "Raspberry Miracle" series, we planted your "Nadezhda" variety. It's a wonderful variety!
    This year we'll be growing only your seeds and will definitely try the other "raspberry miracle" series; we've already ordered the coveted packets!

    Of the last tomatoes I ordered, I was absolutely enchanted by the "Ivan da Marya" tomatoes. They're sweet and incredibly good both fresh and in salads. The fruits grew perfectly: smooth, shiny, and firm. And the color is so unusual, and the way they changed is fascinating – at first they were like ripe plums, then darkened to almost brown. I recommend this variety to everyone I know. Elena Petrovna, Naro-Fominsk.

    I spent a long time searching for a tasty and productive potato to plant. One day, a friend showed me the "Gardens of Russia" catalog and suggested we order mini-tubers of the "Zekura" variety for two. The box that arrived in the mail was ridiculous. The small balls fit in the palm of your hand. But the miracle of selection did not disappoint. Even though the summer was hot, each plant produced about 10 large tubers. We boiled them, tasted them, and they seemed like decent potatoes. This year, we ordered a couple more varieties. It's a shame the catalog selection is a bit limited, but there's plenty to choose from. I'd like to encourage gardeners not to be afraid to order mini-tubers. The results are sure to be good.

    My husband is absolutely crazy about dachas and got me hooked. We've been buying seeds from Sady Rossii for several years now; they're among the highest quality and produce a good harvest. It's convenient for us that we can order in advance for spring or fall, so they can select all the right varieties and deliver them on time. This was especially helpful a couple of years ago when the post office took a long time to deliver packages. If a package of seeds was missing, we could write to them, they'd send the missing ones, and we'd be able to plant all the seedlings on time. Now that our relatives know about our orders, it's even more convenient—they tell us what seeds or seedlings they need, and we add them to our order. We all chip in, pay upon delivery, and then distribute them. It's faster and more convenient.

    We started ordering when their first catalog appeared in our village. We'd first send forms by mail, then call the company to find out how the package was progressing and how long it would take to arrive. And now that the internet is available, it's even better. My daughter places an order, gets a text message informing her that the package has been shipped, along with a tracking number, and she can see online how long it will take for the package to reach us. A package has never taken longer than a week to arrive by mail, even a large one. Over the years, we've ordered apple trees, potato varieties, flower bulbs, and various seeds. Never once has the wrong variety sprouted or the seed packet been empty, as is often the case in stores. The low-growing Mazunina Dwarf apple trees were especially pleasing; they quickly took root, grew, and by the third year, they had their first harvest, a large one, just like in the picture.

    There was enough to make jam and preserves. Because they treat the seedlings with care, packaging them like babies, carefully, and adding damp moss to keep them from drying out. They always arrive in boxes undamaged and undamaged, and not a single one has dried out after planting. We even tried planting them without a growth stimulant, and they took root, whereas the ones from the market are usually puny and get sick for a long time. All the gardeners come to see our vegetables; our record for the largest harvest and size of the Agressor cabbage variety has held for two years now. I've always grown seedlings from seeds from Gardens of Russia, and all the vegetables are delightful in their germination and size. My children and grandchildren are delighted with the sweet Konfetka pumpkin and the Astrakhan watermelons, and they adore the Dina melon; for them, our dacha is like a fairy tale.

    I really like the super tomatoes Zenit, Katrina, and Snegovik—they're short, sturdy, resistant to late blight, weather-resistant, and easy to grow. They're perfect for pickling, every bit as good. They produce a plentiful harvest early and are covered in bloom, with buckets of them being harvested from the bush. I also really liked the Golden Raspberry Miracle tomatoes—they're very sweet and delicious. I've already given away the aster and carnation seeds I grow (11 varieties) to all my friends, and everyone loved them. This summer, I grew a giant early Honey Strawberry and a white Pineberry from the seedlings I received, to the delight of my grandchildren. I'll order several more mid-season varieties for the spring.

    I have tons of plans. I also want to grow apricots, Chinese magnolia vine, grapes, roses, cranberries, lingonberries, Japanese raspberries, and Russian plums and Bessey cherries. Many of our neighbors want to order the same seeds and flowers from us this year. We're already a buyers' club, so we can get a discount and participate in a competition for the largest seed order. We also have many friends in the online buyers' community; we communicate and correspond, sharing experiences. We're glad we found this company; they've given us so much joy. It's nice when your efforts and hard work aren't wasted, when your dacha brings you pleasure and clean, delicious vegetables and fruits. Thank you, Gardens of Russia, for your care and support of us, dacha owners.

    Last year, I ordered my first batch of miniature "Rosara" potatoes from the "Gardens of Russia" catalog for 2,000 rubles. The package arrived within a week. I didn't pay for delivery, just the postal service. The online store even offered a 10% discount. To be honest, I was initially disappointed by the small size of the potatoes, but when I dug up the large red ones, I was overjoyed. This winter, I ordered a couple more varieties; it's a shame the selection is so limited. I recently read reviews saying the potatoes' characteristics don't match what grows from the miniature potatoes. That's not true. I can confidently say don't be afraid to buy them. The harvest will be excellent.

    I'm a fan of domestic fruit tree varieties, and Gardens of Russia is like a mother to me. Four years ago, I saw the "Ksenia" plum in a catalog, bred by Siberian breeders. I ordered it without hesitation. This summer, it bore its first large purple fruits, weighing about 60 grams each. I ordered apple and pear trees from a Chelyabinsk nursery. Everything thrived, and most importantly, the varieties are good and don't freeze in winter. The informational support from social media groups and the YouTube channel is very helpful. For those with limited experience, I want to say, don't blame Gardens of Russia for poor seedlings. Everything I ordered is growing and bearing fruit.

    I've been ordering bulbous flowers from the "Gardens of Russia" catalogs for a long time. At one point, there were rare instances of poor-quality planting material being sent out, which led to many negative reviews. I can confidently say that for the past three years, I've received viable flower bulbs. Last year, I planted "Orange Buttercup" in a flowerbed. The fiery flower delighted passersby and haunted the neighbors. This winter, we saw a large selection of new, even rare, flowers in the new catalog. My neighbor and I placed a large group order, which earned us a generous 10% discount. We're now eagerly awaiting the delivery and the arrival of spring.

    I'd heard about everbearing raspberries many times. Then I came across a "Gardens of Russia" catalog, so I ordered three seedlings by mail. When the package arrived eight days later, I saw some lumps and decided it was another scam. I felt sorry to throw them away, so I planted them and couldn't believe my eyes. In the first year, the shoots grew to 2 meters. So many berries set that the branches had to be tied up. From August to mid-September, each bush yielded about 5 kg of raspberries, all large, averaging 5 g. I knew I had found the professionals. I immediately found the group on social media, and it turns out they also have a YouTube channel. Now I'm a regular customer. Thank you for your work!

    Good afternoon! I'd like to stand up for domestic potato breeding. I've seen many complaints about the "Gardens of Russia" potato distribution system. Last year, I bought mini-tubers of the "Zhukovsky Ranniy" variety for 3,500 rubles. Delivery was fast and free, and they even gave me a 10% discount. I only paid for the postage. Sure, the small tubers look odd, but the potatoes that grew from them meet all the criteria. The pink-skinned potatoes grew large. Each plant contained approximately 11 tubers. The harvest was surprisingly substantial. I'll be ordering again this year. It's just a shame the catalog selection is limited. I recommend not listening to empty talk and buying mini-tubers for planting.

    And then, not a single variety in this series has any indication of ripeness: early, mid-season, or late. That's a downside. I've looked through a bunch of links, but they don't mention it anywhere. This is the first time I've encountered a package without ripeness dates.

    I have a problem. My tomato seedlings disappeared due to my fault, so I had to urgently reorder seeds from the "Seeds of Russia" catalog. Fortunately, they have a wide selection and fast delivery, so I received the package just the other day. I've been ordering seeds from this company for years and even recommend them to all my friends and family. Last summer, I got a huge harvest from the "Nadezhda F1" hybrid. I picked about a bucket of tomatoes from each plant. All were large, weighing at least 170 g. I really like the discount system. They offer 10% for repeat customers and another 10% for orders over 1,500 rubles. This year, I even decided to enter the competition.

    I bought two sets of "Raspberry Miracle" tomatoes. They all sprouted. Due to my illness, I planted overgrown seedlings, and they all thrived. They grew straight, beautiful bushes, free of any diseases. The fruits are beautiful and VERY tasty. There was no real care; just watering, staking, and removing side shoots. Today, October 7th, the bushes are green, blooming, and bearing ripe, green tomatoes!

    Raspberry miracle, they grow well, even in such a summer the harvest was decent, but the taste is terrible, although I picked red ones from the bush.

    Last year, on the advice of a neighbor, I ordered tomatoes, carrots, and many other vegetables and flowers, rose and iris seedlings, and more from "Gardens of Russia." Everything was perfectly packaged, and almost all the seeds were treated with thiram. The seedlings were tiny, and I was worried about them. But not a single one was lost; they all took root. My carrots had never sprouted so early; I was amazed. Yes, I took care of them, watered them, and sprayed them with HB101. I'm so surprised by the bad reviews. This year was terrible, but everything grew. The raspberry miracle is simply wonderful. Yes, they don't yield 700 grams, but maybe the care here isn't excellent. I buy large-fruited varieties like Lev, Libra, and others, but this year they only produced a few fruits, and the entire harvest was raspberry. Don't be afraid to order, and remember: no pain, no gain. Good luck!
