Theuret

Pink beefsteak tomato. Good flavor. Sweet and juicy. Indeterminate. Potato leaf. Slightly flattened to flattened fruit shape. Slight ribbing extends entire length of fruit. Moderate radial cracking at stem end. Commonly three fruit per cluster. Fruit measure 2.7-3" long; 3.2-4.3" wide; and weigh up to a pound. Brix score: 4.9. Intermediate productivity when grown in 2015 at Heritage Farm. Inserted flower stigma. Mid-season maturing. Donated to SSE in 2010 by Judy Hines of Bloomington, IL. Judy received seeds of the variety in a Christmas card from friends Bob and Veronica Theuret (pronounced TOUR et) in 2000. Bob and Veronica have been growing and saving seed from the variety since they were married in 1949. They received it from Bob’s parents, Joseph and Mary Theuret, but it's unknown when Joseph and Mary began growing this variety. Both generations of Theurets steward(ed) the tomato on the family’s property just outside of Saegertown, PA. SSE Accession # 131167
