The Tsar of bells. Big tasty heart shaped tomatoes on wispy foliage plants. Out of the hearts we grew, this one and Monomakh’s Hat seemed to like our hot southern weather a bit better than all the others. The flavor of this tomato is outstanding. Tsar Kolokol has moved on to my list of top tomatoes. I can't imagine an heirloom tomato garden without it.
I almost didn’t plant this one this year. I’m sure glad I did. It was in my top 10 for sure. The color is striking and the production was pretty good. The flavor was out of this world. I tasted this tomato side by side with some of my favorites and Raspberry Miracle out did them all. Over the top on flavor.
Beautiful fluted heirloom tomato from Columbia. Bright pink ruffled tomatoes that tend to be pear shaped with flutes, but can also throw out a flattened fruit every now and then. These make great sauce and paste tomatoes since they are not very juicy. The color is really pretty and stands out in the garden.
This was THE most requested tomato plant for the local home grower market back when I had a retail nursery and greenhouse. It really is about as good as it gets in a good producing pink or what the locals call “that pink tomato”. This tomato was the first one released by Dr. Joe McFerran from the University of Arkansas.
Good tasting dark pink to purple 4 to 6 ounce juicy tomatoes on strong growing vines. While this tomato might share the “Traveler” name it is not from the same breeding program. Burgundy Traveler is one of the prettiest tomatoes I grew and the flavor is outstanding. It is more on the old fashion acidic side with just enough sweetness to make it one of my favorites.
Huge pink beefsteak tomatoes on strong growing regular foliage vines. These are absolutely amazing for their size, hardiness, and great flavor. We got our seed from the source, Mr. Dan McMurray and are truly grateful for all of his assistance. We are thrilled to be the first one to make this stunning giant tomato available here in the United States.
I was really happy to get seeds for this hard to find great tasting tomato. This was our first year to grow it and it will make a return. Garden real estate is pretty sacred around my house so if something comes back, it means it was really good. Original seed from Dr. Carolyn Male, author of 100 Heirloom Tomatoes for the American Garden.
