Thorburn's Terra-Cotta Tomato Plants (Large Slicing Type)
Oh this tomato!! Another top favorite, I refuse to skip growing this one! One of my all time favorites for the outstanding flavor and size!
Seed Source: Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.
Description excerpt from source site:
”Incredible flavor, color and history! Introduced in 1893 by James Thorburn of New York, this is one of the most sensational tomatoes we have ever grown. With honey-brown skin, orange-pink flesh, and green seed mass, this is an eye-catching slicer with an out-of-this-world flavor. The tomato produces heavily during mid-season and then drops off quickly once cool weather sets in. As a cooker it will yield a pumpkin-orange sauce with a floral aroma. We are excited to have this tomato that was painted in color in Thorburn’s 1893 catalog; at last we can offer this rare treasure! From the collection of Dr. William Woys Weaver.”
