Originated from the Andes and cultivated in Central America, introduced in 1925.
Does well in light to heavy soils with good drainage and high organic and phosphorus. Sensitive to frosts, matures early and suits temperate climates. Sow anytime in frost free areas, can sow indoors 5 weeks before transplanting in cooler areas or after last frost. Water in furrows rather than overhead to reduce disease, declines if waterlogged. Vigorous bush best staked, disease resistant. Suppresses couch grass.
This is the heaviest type of heirloom tomato, known to reach weights of 450g. Produces large, red, flat fruit, perfect for slicing. Use fresh in sandwiches and salads, or cooked in stews, soups and sauces.
