Details
Legendary tomato breeder Fred Hempel has introduced one of his most stunning varieties yet, the Pink Jazz tomato! This is one awe-inspiring tomato. Fruits produced are huge and either beefsteak or ox-heart shaped, weighing in at over 1 lb. each. These metallic pink gargantuan tomatoes are accented with light pink-yellow tiger stripes. The fruits are dripping with sweet, tomato flavor that is often described as having peach undertones. With moderate yields, these plants are a striking addition to any garden!
