Exclusive Gourmet Organic Open-pollinated

Canadian breeder Karen Olivier's extra large dark purple/burgundy beefsteak tomato.

Dense, juicy band meaty with few seeds, they are the ultimate in rich flavours you'd expect from an old Heirloom. The strong plants boas huge potato leaves. They are a cross between Ludmilla's Pink Heart and Captain Lucky. Great parentage.

Try them in a roasted tomato salad dressed with good olive oil, pulled soft cheese and confetti of fresh herbs. You'll be equally happy eating them freshly sliced with salt and pepper on their own. Heavenly!

Growing: strong potato leaf, indeterminate, needs staking

Flavour: Meaty, juicy, few seeds, heirloom tomato richness

Quantity: 10 seeds
