25 Heirloom Beefsteak Tomato Seeds~My Absolute FAVORITE Tomato! You will get the seeds, of course, not the beautiful tomatoes pictured here!
Heirloom tomatoes are renowned for their amazing range of flavor, color, shape, suitability for specific growing conditions, and true-to-parent seed saving ability. Below is a photo of the queen of heirloom tomatoes: a ripening Brandywine. Brandywine tomatoes are too big and odd-shaped to be of interest to commercial growers. But their awesome flavor has made them favorites of gardeners everywhere, and they are one of the best reasons to get into vegetable gardening. Biting into a Brandywine or other heirloom tomato is an experience you can't buy from the grocery store. Beefsteak tomatoes grow as large as 1 to 2 pounds per fruit, with a single slice of some varieties large enough to cover a slice of bread. Beefsteaks are considered long-season tomatoes which take much longer to mature than early tomato varieties. The term "Beefsteak" refers to a specific cultivar, as well as other cultivars of large, flavorful slicing tomatoes with dense flesh and multiple seed cavities. Beefsteak tomatoes are perhaps most known for their bumpy, irregular shape, but beefsteaks can also be perfectly round. Special consideration must be given when growing beefsteaks because the size can actually hurt the plants.
