4" pots - All our tomato seedlings are large greenhouse grown plants in deep pots and are ready to get growing in your garden!

(pictured) Paste Tomato - San Marzano: one of the best paste tomatoes of all time! Whole 4–6 oz. tomatoes peel easily and cook down quickly. This strain originates from Parma, Italy, where it was developed for the 1950's canning industry. This strain has a very traditional San Marzano shape and appearance as well as a vibrant red color. Indeterminate.  24-36” spacing.


Vendor: Rasmussen Farm

Beefsteak:
Black Krim: Fedco says "(80 days) Open-pollinated. Indeterminate. Don’t wait too long to harvest this delicate heirloom tomato. At half green and still firm they are already dead ripe and perfectly delicious. If you wait till they are fully purple, you will not be able to get them from garden to table intact (to say nothing of market) and they will disintegrate like a hunk of road-kill. Krims are strikingly iridescent purple on the outside, usually with dark green-black shoulders and noticeable catfacing. Interiors are part black, too, with an unusual juicy yet meaty taste and texture, described as having “…a smoky flavor like a good single malt scotch.” Fruits average 12–18 oz. Krim hails from Krymsk on the Black Sea in Russia"

Paste
Sheboygan paste: Fedco says "(80 days) Open-pollinated. Indeterminate. In making their way from their Baltic nation to Sheboygan, WI, Lithuanians of the late 19th and early 20th century surely left much behind. But this productive pink paste tomato, 6 ounces and subtly tapered to a rounded tip, was held tight in passage. We discovered why in our 2020 trials: resonating, smooth and simply full, like a tomato-cello playing in your mouth. Enjoy fresh, canned and sauced, especially for Balandeliai, Lithuanian cabbage rolls with tomato-sour cream sauce. Regular leaf-type."

Slicing
Garden Peach - very low acidity: Fedco says: "Yellow fruits blush pink when ripe and have thin fuzzy skins somewhat like peaches, soft-skinned, juicy and very sweet. Light fruity taste is not what you expect in a tomato. Burpee in 1893 called it “delicate, melting in the mouth like a grape. For well over a century savvy gardeners have brought Peach 4 oz fruits indoors before frost to keep for several weeks. "

Rutgers: Classic, smooth, round, red tomato, great for fresh eating or canning
