This heirloom tomato was brought into the seed store by a local gentleman who had been saving the seed for many years. His family brought this variety to the USA when they immigrated here.
Produces fruits that are the size of a small egg, vibrant pink, sugar sweet and just begging to be eaten. Perfectly sized for salads or putting in a lunchbox! (70-80 days)
Planting Instructions:
Start seed indoors 4 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost of spring. Seeds are covered only slightly to allow light which sometimes assists germination. Keep the soil evenly moist. Seed trays are held in warm conditions until sprouts appear, which may take anywhere from 3 to 10 days, depending on temperature, moisture, etc.
Move seedlings immediately to bright light conditions, such as a south-facing window or under a grow light. After the last frost, transplant them into the garden and space 2 to 3 feet apart.
