Tomato Sallisaw Cafe

Red, Cherry heritage tomato on indeterminate plants. Description From the 2018 Seed Swap and unsuccessfully grown in 2019.

Now, that…… Continue reading Tomato Sallisaw Cafe

Tomato Tiger

A medium sized red & brown/green striped tomato Description We got this from the 2018 seed swap and will plan to grow it in 2019.

Tomato Pink Tiger (Artisan Pink Tiger)

A pointed, red and pink striped open pollinated tomato on indeterminate plants. Description We got this from the 2017 seed swap (possibly from the same source as Blush Tiger) and again it was a pleasant surprise (well, less of a surprise following Blush last year).

Yellow bell shaped open pollinated tomato on indeterminate plants.

Medium sized pink beefsteak on indeterminate vines. Description Grown for the first time in 2018 with seeds from a seed swap, we were interested to see how this grew.
