Heirloom Tomatoes 2020

Here is a list of tomatoes I'm growing this year

Alladin's Lamp 

Sweet, smooth and aromatic, this tomato will blow you away with its beauty. Vines are very hardy and produce plenty of deep yellow, ruffled pear-shaped fruits that ripen in about 80 days after transplant. Think sauces and salsas.

Ananas Noir

multi-colored beefsteak tomatoes, characterized by their large size and slightly flattened globe shape with ridges. Their skin ripens to a dark purple-red with a green blush and green shoulders, and their flesh has beautiful and distinctive streaked patterns of pink, red, green and yellow.

Aunt Ruby's German Green

One of the largest green beefsteaks. Can grow to over 1 pound and are just delicious. They have brilliant, neon-green flesh with a strong, sweet, and fruity flavor, much tastier than most red tomato

Aviuri

Aviuri originated in Russia about 25 years ago. It is a bright red tomato with vivid gold striping. I have found it to be much more vigorous than other 'tiger-striped' tomatoes I have grown. The five foot plants bear fairly early and the fruit is dense with fine texture and lots of flavor. They look absolutely beautiful in a mixed basket of tomatoes. Definitely worth a try.

Banded Amazon

Beautiful, dwarf-type variety developed by ‘J&L Gardens Seeds’. Determinate, regular leaf and compact plant, about 2 1/2 feet tall, produces heavy yield of 8-10 oz., beautiful mahogany-red fruits with dark green striping and delicious, rich flavors

Black Amber

Dark purple medium sized flattened and heavily ribbed fruit. Distinct -vinous taste-similar to Purple Calabash. Delicious.Superb and productive flattened purple fruit.

Black Cherry

Another favourite! Black Cherry Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes grow on 6 foot plants sporting 1-2” fruit that are just so rich with black-fleshed tomato flavour.

Black Giant

Big, purple-black fruit are a favorite of seed collectors, who rave about this one's fantastic flavor! The dark, globe fruit weigh 6-14 oz and are borne on highly productive vines that start producing fairly early. These have a wonderful taste; the perfect blend of acid and sugars makes this one really stand out; highly delicious

Black Krim

Black Krim Heirloom Tomatoes are a  rare purple-black tomato and is one of the best tasting you will ever try. Originally from the Isle of Krim in the Black Sea of the former Soviet Union. The dark, three inch fruit have a fantastic and intense taste perfect for anything that calls for a tomato.

Blue Beauty

Fruit is modest beefsteak-type slicers, weighing up to 8 ounces, and the flavor is as good as their outstanding antioxidant content! Gorgeous, deep blue-black shoulders make this unique among slicing types. Excellent potential for market, as the fruit holds well on the vine. Sunburn and crack resistance are a welcome bonus

Blueberry

small cherry variety. Very dark purple color, which means it’s super-rich in anthocyanins. Unripe, the fruits are a glowing amethyst purple.

Plants are very productive, yielding all season

Bogus Fructa

Truly determinate, we were astonished at such abundance from plants that never exceeded 2 feet high! Each red-orange fruit is juicy, mild-flavored and averages four ounces. The plants stay exceedingly compact and upright, making this the perfect variety for containers or gardens with limited space.

Czech Bush

Extremely productive tomato that produces a terrific amount of tomatoes on a dwarf type, sturdy bush. Although a determinate variety, you may need to fortify the tomato cage holding the plant due to the sheer number of fruit that is produced.

Although fairly large, the fruits also ripen relatively early.

The vigorous, rugose, regular leaf plants are among the taller growing of the new dwarf varieties. The plants produce excellent yields of medium sized (four to eight ounce) smooth, slightly oblate chocolate colored tomatoes with jagged green and gold stripes. The rich crimson flesh has the intense flavor of black tomatoes but with great balance.

Early Annie

A short determinate heirloom variety that produce high yields of 4 oz., round, meaty fruits with few seeds. Particularly good for canning. Fruit sets all at once. Early Annie is an exceptional tomato combining earliness, productiveness, and beautiful, medium sized, blemish free orange red fruit.
