http://www.seedman.com/tomato.htm Found this company and they have many varieties, all colors and types of tomatoes. Carolyn they have several pinks that sound good including a pink Brandywine. See what you think.
Thank You Mart. I have actually grown a few of these, but I have already ordered my seeds for this year and done a little trading and I have a boat load of new ones to try...SO, I hopefully, will be able to give you an update on some new ones (at least to me) and share a few seeds this Fall if I think they are worth saving.Unfortunately the brandywine I have grown so far has produced little to no fruit for me. Last year I didn't get one fruit even close to ready before frost hit. . The year before was the same....A few fruits almost ready and then the frost got them. Kind of hard to get excited about them...I am trying a few "not common" heirlooms, we'll see. I ordered Carbon, blck krim, costoluto fiorentine, Mr. Bruno, Raspberry Tomato, Purple Russian, Wild Fred dwarf, bosque blue, yellow submarine, Sugar Drop, Absinthe, Austin's Black Cherry (a trade) and a bunch more from a seed swap PLUS all my regulars. I hope I have enough room in the garden.
I bought the Mortgage Lifter last year but didn`t have time to get them started early enough. Trying again this year. They also come in pink with 1 to 3 lb. tomatoes possible. We will see how they do. Brandywine is a late season tomato so they have to be started early so greenhouse for late crop would be better for them. I like to try at least one new variety each year. Might hit on a winner!
LOL Evidently Radiator Charlie did. He used the seedlings to sell and pay off his mortgage. "Mortgage Lifter"!
I grew them a few years ago. The taste isn't what I remember.. it was the size of them. WAY to big for me.
A scale is another item to remember to take along to the markets and since I have such a good forgetter in my head...... I put them in quart baskets or sell them by the piece.
