VEGETABLES / TOMATO
OTHER-COLORED
Bicolor beefsteak tomato. Ripe fruit an electric combination of orange and an intense red blush at the blossom end. Indeterminate growth habit. Flattened shape with a depressed shoulder. Cat-face appearance and concentric cracking present, although rare. Market mature fruits measured 2.4-3.5" long, 3.5-4.9" wide, and weighed up to 1.3lb in 2023. Very meaty with a thicker skin. Average productivity when grown in 2023 at Heritage Farm. Given to SSE by Dorothy Beiswenger (MN BE D) who first offered this variety in the 1983 SSE Yearbook Exchange. It was originally sent to Dorothy in the early 1980s from a resident of Polk County, MN as a "no name" variety, but Dorothy liked it so much that she decided to name it "Big Rainbow."
