Tomato, Brandywine

  • $4.00

Description

Solanum lycopersicum

King of the garden. Huge, delicate 1 lb fruits with a flavor like no other. A must-grow!

There is little more voluptuous than a ripe Brandywine hanging fat on the vine. It is a sexy celebration, a garish dismissal of tasteless supermarket tomato impostors. Indeterminate heirloom. Open-pollinated.

Tomatoes are native to northwestern South America and by at least 500 BC they had been domesticated and were being cultivated as far north as modern-day Mexico, enjoyed by Aztec and other civilizations. They spread to Europe and the Caribbean through the Spanish colonizers, where they became staple parts of the food culture in many European countries as well. 

Seeds grown by Giving Ground Farm in Pocatello, Idaho, Swift River Farm in Salmon, Idaho and Winniford Family Farm in Rice, Washington.

30 seeds.

Directions: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost and transplant out after. Bury past first set of leaves, add eggshells to soil for calcium, and provide support.
