Another large Heritage beefsteak, this blushing red tomato has beautiful interior red and yellow marbling with a mild and fruity taste.

Black Brandywine 80 days
Lots of controversy over this fellow - Black Brandywine or Brandywine Black; which is the descendant of the original Heritage Brandywine?
We doubt this one is, since it is small and round, unlike its namesake. None the less, this black has great real tomato taste and is prolific. Crack resistant and beautiful.
Indeterminate. Potato Leaf.
Black Zebra 85 days
Perfect compliment to Green Zebra and Schimmers Stripe for visual impact with the great complex "black" taste. This medium sized Heritage tomato has bold green striping on brick red, with mahogany flesh. Included in our Zebra Collection.
