Chocolate Cherry
Days: 70
Size: Indeterminate
Color: Brown/Purple
Season: Mid-Season
Type: Heirloom
|
Description
Unique Chocolate Color and Rich Tangy Flavor. Chocolate Cherry is so much more
than a pretty face! These 1-inch beauties boast the most flavorful tomato tang in the family, from their delicious thin skins to their combinations of gels and solids, sweets and meats, in every bite. Appearing in clusters of 8 all over this compact vining plant, these miniatures ripen delectably from green to lavender to richest mahogany. They have a fresh-grown flavor and texture no store-bought variety can equal, from their rich fragrance to that great bite as they are popped whole into your mouth or scattered on salads. Truly a gourmet variety, they keep coming all summer! To make the most of this flavor, you may want to harvest these tomatoes a day or two before they are fully ripe and let them bake in the sunshine of a kitchen window. This prevents cracking and theft from birds, who also find them irresistible, and assures that each Chocolate Cherry reaches its peak of flavor. There's nothing to compare in the cherry tomato family! This plant reaches 5 to 6 feet high and about 3 feet wide, sometimes continuing to grow and set new fruit into autumn. It might just do for a large container, and should certainly be front and center in the vegetable garden. You MUST try this gourmet delight! |
Beefy Boy

Size: Indeterminate
Color: Red
Season: Mid-Season
Type: Hybrid
|
Description
Hearty Flavor, Mammoth Yields, and Extra-Large Beefsteak Size! 12- to 16-ounce
fruits are jammed with sweet, meaty flavor -- more solids and less gel than most tomatoes of this size. Everything about Beefy Boy is larger-than-life, from its succulent flavor to its generous yields! Bred specifically for maximum flavor, the taste is sweet yet meaty, with more solids and less gel than other varieties, despite its walloping 12- to 16-ounce size. This is the tomato you must grow this year for fresh tomato sandwiches and salads! And because the vines are indetermine, production is quite heavy. Yet the short internodes between the fruit mean a more manageable, space-saving plant for the home garden -- you won't be desperately staking and re-staking a runaway vine with Beefy Boy! Superior disease protection, too -- Beefy Boy is tolerant of Stemphylium and resistant to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt races 1 and 2, and Tobacco Mosaic Virus. On top of all that, the globe-shaped tomatoes are gorgeous, with deep red skin and smooth shoulders (thanks to uniform ripening). Cage or stake this main-season variety to support all of its bounty! |
Agro - SOLD OUT!
Days: 95
Size: Indeterminate
Color: Red
Season: Late-Season
Type: Hybrid
|
Description
Firm fruit won't crack, and grows very uniform in size for easier cooking. When
it's time to make tomato paste, what you want is armloads of ripe, delicious fruit, all about the same size so they will cook down evenly. That's what you get with this new variety from Germany -- masses of plump, firm, bright red fruit full of flavorful solids and fewer gels, for a very long season of harvest. Agro Hybrid is a San Marzano type, with firm-skinned fruit that won't crack or burst on the plant. This is the type of Tomato for which the Mt. Vesuvius region of Italy is famous, and the sauces and pastes it makes are renowned for their full, tangy flavor. When it's time for authentic Neopolitan cuisine, rely on Agro! A very heavy producer all season, this is the cook's best friend. It is highly adaptable to different climates, and a dependable performer in all. Give it a try this season! |

Season: Late-Season
Type: Heirloom
|
Description
The Best-Tasting Heirloom! This beefsteak type weighs up to 2 pounds. Pineapple
is a beefsteak type with huge yellow-gold fruit often striped in red and boasting fewer seeds and more solids, for an extra bite or two in every Tomato. Very high-yielding, this colossal Tomato is as fascinating to look at as it is delicious to eat. It has a strong Tomato aroma and fruity aftertaste, for a 'real tomato' experience you just can't find with today's less robust, milder-tasting hybrids! Enjoy this memento of the past, recreated in your own garden. |
Cherokee Purple
Days: 75
Size: Indeterminate
Color: Red/Green/Purple/Orange
Season: Mid-Season
Type: Heirloom
|
Description
Deep Violet Color, Intense Rich Flavor. Believed to have originated in the
Cherokee Nation in Tennessee more than a century ago. A beloved heirloom as valuable for its flavor as it is for its unusual look, Cherokee Purple sets giant beefsteaks weighing about a pound and filled with intense violet-purple hues. This is a true legacy plant, believed to have originated more than 120 years ago in the Cherokee nation in Tennessee. The vining plant is very heavy-bearing, and each of these tomatoes is a masterpiece of color, flavor, and history. Do not miss this valuable fruit from the American past. Slightly ridged and very symmetrically shaped, these tomatoes combine juiciness with a strong tomato tang, the type unknown to those rock-hard supermarket varieties. They may need some support as they mature on the plant, their massive weight pulling them downwards. Stake this vigorous plant well and then offer a little extra help to bring in its crop of giants! Cherokee Purple is indeterminate, so it keeps growing and setting new fruit all summer long. You will find it very easy to grow and heavy-bearing. For extra-large tomatoes, remove all but a few flowers, so the plant can concentrate its energy into fewer fruit. For our part, we like Cherokee Purple so much that more is merrier! |

Days: 80

Color: Red
Season: Mid-Season
Type: Heirloom
|
Description
The Classic Heirloom -- Big, Delicious Fruit! Indeterminate vines bear heavily
over a long season. Indeterminate. This is an heirloom that really looks like it was developed and grown long ago. Bearing little resemblance to bland, smooth, evenly red modern hybrids, Brandywine delights with big, uneven fruit, deeply lobed and not at all "uniform"! All the better for the flavor, of course! Brandywine is a favorite among connoisseurs of classic tomatoes. The plants are indeterminate, for good yields over a long season. The fruit is surprisingly large -- 12 ounces or more -- and no two will look exactly alike. Attention-getting, distinctive, and tried-and-true, Brandywine is truly a classic! |

|
Description
The Patio Tomato that Keeps Bearing All Season Long! The habit is determinate,
but the fruit production is ongoing! Here we go -- a fabulous new cherry tomato compact enough to grow in containers on the patio or back porch, with a determinate habit (meaning that it stops growing once it sets fruit) BUT an indeterminate fruit production (meaning that those new tomatoes just keep setting all season long!)

Sweet 'n' Neat Scarlet Improved reaches just 10 to 12 inches high, but sets lots and lots of flowers and fruit on its well-branched habit. The little cherries are about ¾- to 1-ounce, arising in huge clumps like grapes! They will continue as long as the warm summer weather holds out, so get ready for a bumper crop!
