My Love’s Pink Oxheart
Vigorous vine produces big bunches of huge pink tomatoes which are oxheart shaped, meaty, and have fantastic flavor. They have a good balance of sweet and acid. The plant is unlike otheroxheart tomatoes, it has sturday foliage, not wispy like some oxhearts. This tomato has several large, large fruits that weren’t yet ripe. I was hoping to take them to the fair last year but they didn’t turn until several days right after the fair. I would have won the largest with one of them, it topped out at over 3 pounds!

Rose
I won the largest tomato of the 2011 Spokane County Fair with this one.
A large leafy heirloom that produces deep, rose-pink, 3″, meaty globes with a taste that rivals those varieties heralded most for their luscious taste.
Seed is from a doctor in PA who got it from one of her Amish patients.

Delicious
A favorite
An excellent slicer, with most fruits over 1 pound – many 2 to 3 pounds – and still holds the world record of 7+ pounds for a single fruit! Not in our neck of the woods, probably somewhere south where they have lot sof heat and a way longer growing season.
Produces smooth and solid fruits that seldom crack, with small cavities, nearly solid meat, and excellent flavor.
Developed from Beefsteak after 13 years of careful selection.
Rocky
A favorite despite the late maturation date. We had loads of them for canning in September.
Simply amazing! These were enormous tomatoes in my garden. Some were so big, you could have used 3 or 4 in one quart jar and a joy to slip the skins for canning.
Good producer of 2 x 3-inch (and bigger), 1 lb., red, paste tomatoes.
Sweet, tangy, meaty fruit. One of the best flavored sauce tomatoes.
