White beefsteak heritage tomato on indeterminate plants.
Description
White Queen is a “white” Beefsteak tomato. The Indeterminate regular leafed plant produces very sweet, very pale, beefsteak tomatoes of about 6-8ounces late in the season. It is very fragrant, smooth-skinned with slightly ribbed shoulders. It has a very sweet taste, one of the best white tomatoes.
The web shows it introduced in around 1941.
We grew this variety in 2013 to complement the other coloured beefsteak tomatoes. Some fruit can have pink streaks on the blossom end of the fruit adding to their delight.
