Heirloom Tomato 'Brandywine'

Brandywine is a very popular heirloom beefsteak tomato that dates back to 1885. The large fruit are a beautiful shade of red/pink with sweet flavor. These large vines grow vigorously to 6-7 feet, are very productive and have potato leaf foliage.

Plant in full sun in soil that has been amended with compost and a good organic vegetable fertilizer that is not too high in nitrogen. Support these heavily bearing plants with a tall, sturdy tomato cage. Multiple plants need at least 3 ft. space between them.

Harvest when fruit are a fully colored and slightly soft to the touch. The taste is so fantastic eaten fresh in salads or in slices on a sandwich.
