Brandywine is a large, beefsteak-shaped tomato fruit that grows upright on large leaved plants. This Amish heirloom dates back all the way to 1885. A large heirloom variety with sweet, dusty red-pink coloring is great for canning. One of the best flavored tomatoes you'll ever grow and taste it's excellent for salsa, salads, hamburgers and anything else you can dream up for a tomato! Brandywine fruits have a reddish-pink, creamy flesh that can grow from 12-20 ounces.
