Details
Northern Lights is very juicy and has an excellent, sweet, and fruity flavor. This 7-16 oz. beefsteak tomato has gorgeous colors and an irregular shape! Each tomato starts light green turning to light yellow, then the pink color starts appearing from the blossom end and expands up. Some fruits turn almost entirely pink on the outside when ripened all the way. There are dark pink streaks throughout the yellow flesh.
