Tomato – Faworyt

Red/Pink Late Harvesting Beefsteak on Indeterminate plants

Description

A Polish cultivar ( the name translates a “Favourite”) its variously described as “Early” or “Late” (about 80 days?) and “virtually seedless” to “heavily seeded” so my guess is that its a fairly standard Beefsteak, similar to Mortgage Lifter or Pink Brandywine both of which grow well for us. As a Polish (rather than Italian) cultivar we are hopeful that it will do reasonably well (we find that continental and North American cultivars seem to prefer our cooler climate in middle England).

2024: These are the first pickings. A smallish beefsteak type which look pinker than the picture seems to show. Among the first of the non-cherry tomatoes this year but everything seems somewhat topsy turvey this year. All our vegetables are either late, failed to germinate or running away with it. We didn’t try them, just made them into tomato sauce.
