VEGETABLES / TOMATO
PINK-PURPLE
85 days, indet. habit with heavy cover of potato leaf foliage, light pink beefsteak, moderate to high yield, meaty for a beefsteak, taste is outstanding and complex, starting out tangy and ending up sweet at the same time, both flavors have a full tomato taste. Good disease res. The seed was given to me by a lady in Minnesota. She obtained the seed from a friend who had brought a tomato to her and then saved the seeds from this tomato. He did not remember the name, but did remember he was given two plants by someone who said the seed had been saved for 120 years or more in their family. That was in 2003. She indicated that one of the plants succumbed to a critter of some kind and the other had a tree branch fall on it and broke it so that it only bore two tomatoes. Her description was that it was large, more pink than red, had ribbing, lots of seeds and very meaty and sweet and flavorful but not watery.
