I am so excited to write about this tomato that I am all tingly inside. Cleota Pink tomato was one of our best 5 selections In 2017. Out of 200 varieties grown, Cleota Pink was one of the standouts! Extra large tomatoes, constantly cross 1.5 pounds and even produce plenty of 2 pound and bigger fruits. This big beauty is very meaty and balanced. I haven’t really tasted a beefsteak quite like it. Vines are potato leaf and grow to about 6 feet tall in full sunlight. Fruits begin to ripen about 85 days after transplant and continue on until frost. Do with this beauty whatever you want! Please check out our 1-2 pound tomato category for more interesting varieties.

3 and a half stars really. Production was pretty good and it was definitely a vigorous plant with large, flawless fruits. The flavor/texture was also top notch although not rivaling Brandywine in my opinion. Production seemed about the same but I can’t really say for sure because we had an unprecedented heat wave this year and the majority of my large beefsteaks dropped all their blossoms and never really recovered. I will definitely try this one again someday as I think the potential is there.

Cleota Pink has performed beautifully for me. Loaded and tasty, which makes me very happy! Give it a try and you won’t be disappointed…at least not until they are all gone!

Cleota Pink tomato definitely rivals any Brandywine tomato. It’s consistently larger, with thicker meat and really good flavor. Everything approaches 2 pounds! My new favorite for large varieties. Potato leaf vines!
