Silver Queen Okra is a highly desirable, heirloom okra that has quickly grown in popularity. Until about a few years ago, not many people grew this variety. Since then, this very flavorful heirloom has been highly sought after. Popular because of it's vigor and productivity, vibrant plants produce huge amounts of fruits. This variety is a massive producer, that starts seeing fruits really early too! When you cook with these, you will know that you are tasting a superior cultivar. Plant are also very pleasing to the eye. Expect your plants to reach about 6 feet tall. See more okras here!

Out of stockOne of the most prolific and delicious tomatoes that we grew in 2018, Dwarf Andy's Forty tomato belongs in every tomato garden. Plants are about 3 feet tall and just keep pumping them out all season long. I also found that these were very disease resistant. Ours didn't not get early or late blight. Bi-color fruits are about 4-8 ounces. They bear in bunches of about 4-5 and begin to ripen about 75 days after transplant. Andy's Forty tomato is flavorful, mild and rich. It has very good texture and nice aroma when fully ripened. Overall a delicious tomato! A nice selection for garnish, cooking, snacking and so much more. Great for container growing or smaller gardens wanting good production. See It On YouTube.

Out of stockI was introduced to Alabama Red Okra in 2018. The gifter of my seeds had really high reviews for the variety, so I decided to grow them out. I started seeds late and directly in the ground, around mid-June. By Mid September I already had harvested several times. I harvested many times more, until frosts filled the plants. Alabama Red is a very flavorful okra. What I like also, is that they remain soft for a much longer time than many varieties. So you can get maximum use. These okras have a nutty flavor. I enjoyed them fried and in some okra soup. I did not make gumbo but my friends tell me that's where they really shine!

I am so happy that I grew out Grandma Josie's Amish White tomato in 2018. Honestly, I had forgotten that I had a few plants on my grow list. Wished I had planted more! When the fruits began to ripen, I then took notice! Tall vines produced 1 pound, very pale yellow beefsteak fruits, that were desirable and tasty. If you like a balanced tomato that is not too loud, this would work well for you. Sweetish, minimal acidity, great texture and meaty is how I would describe Grandma Josie's Amish White! Recommended for any tomato garden. 90 Days!

Tel Aviv Train tomato was a new grow-out for us in 2018. Our plants produced small to medium sized cherries, that grow in medium to large clusters. These had nice texture and good fruity flavor. For us, this variety was one of the hardiest in the garden. They started producing early and ripened their first fruits around 72 days. Plants are about 5-6 feet tall. This is a good selection for canning, salads and snacking, especially in the garden! I also recommend these for sales at your tomato stand or farmer's market. A good choice for first time growers seeking an easy but rewarding experience!

Looking for a short, dwarf variety that produces like crazy? Try Nano Ciliegia Dwarf tomato! These can outproduce anything! Sweetish cherries are firm and delicious. They have fabulous texture and are perfect for snacking! Plants are no taller than 2.5 feet, but are always loaded. Fruits are average cherry sized. Nano Ciliegia is a recomended variety for container growing. If you have a small garden, this dwarf variety could work well! Stake well, because plants easily get top heavy with fruits. We noticed our first ripened fruits around day 75. Works for salads, canning, dehydrating and tons more. Try These!
-
Pixie Striped Dwarf tomato is a beautiful red and yellow fruit that grows on 2 feet tall plants. When you try these, you can expect good production on productive, very hardy plants. Ours did not have any diseases in 2018, even though it was a tough year! This is a perfect container variety that should do well in 4 or 5 gallon containers. Pixie Striped has hollow insides and may be good for some stuffing. Cavities are not too deep. These are sweeter and mild, not too much juice. I suspect they will work well for dehydrating too! This little dwarf tomato is a pleasure to grow!

Big beefsteak tomatoes are what you will get when you grow Granny Harriet's Heirloom Tomato. I was totally blown away by these! I acquired these seeds from my friend, who wanted me to let everyone know that his family had grown them for more than 80 years and that he is still growing them. Granny Harriet's easily surpasses 1 pound and most are between 1.5 and 2 pounds. They are very balanced and ready for any sandwich! I especially enjoyed mine with a little salt and pepper. Stake vines well for best results. Our first fruits ripened around 88 days after transplant!

In mid-May, I planted Mortgage Lifter Bi-Color tomato in my garden and then forgot all about it. Around the first week of August, I noticed these beautiful, huge tomatoes on big vines and didn't know what they were. I looked at the tags and my garden map and verified that they were Mortgage Lifter Bi-Color. This is a very sweet tomato, even sweeter than Pineapple or Gold Medal. It has nicely textured flesh and pleasant aroma, when fully ripened. Our biggest fruits were about 1.5 pounds. Plants are not prolific but they produce plenty for such a large tomato. Perfect for sandwiches, garnish, cooking market sales and more!
-
A nice sized beefsteak, Phil's Fantastic tomato averages around 10-12 ounces. Some of ours reached the pound mark, but not very many. This beautiful fruit has nice aroma when fully ripened. As far as taste, it veers towards the sweet side but has a nice amount of tang too! So it's well balanced, with some other flavors that I can only describe as delicious. Nice amount of meat and smooth texture that is perfect for eating all by itself or on a sandwich. May make a good cooking tomato too. Try some stewed tomatoes, it may work great!
-
Out of stockDwarf Awesome tomato is now one of my favorite dwarf varieties. 3 feet tall plants have rugose leaves and bear 6-16 ounce fruits that are as flavorful as you will ever get them. Fruits are sweet, fruity, rich, smooth and delicious. Plants are hardy too. Ours never showed any signs of diseases, even in a difficult year. What's more, plants went on to produce until frosts. This is a great tomato for just snacking straight from the garden, sandwiches, garnishing and more. They should do well in containers also, because plants are compact and hardy. Try some, you'll love them!
-
Out of stockShishito pepper is a mild, 3 inch long pepper that ripens red. These have very little heat and are mainly used for culinary purposes. They have a nice flavor and a favorite of cooks and chefs. Our Shishito plants don't usually grow taller than 3 feet in full sunlight. It's a great pepper for pickling, drying for flakes or as a garnish on pizza etc. Try growing these in post too, they can do very well that way, if cared for. plants are prolific and will produce all season long. Make some mildly spicy pepper sauce for flavoring your meals without excess heat! These ripen to a nice red color that is just tempting!

Orange Truffles Tomato
Orange Truffles tomato is a unique looking fruit. Bell shaped, deep yellow fruits, have really nice flavor, texture and aroma. Not to be confused with Aladdin's Lamp, Orange Truffles is a larger tomato with different flavor (sweeter) and shape. It also tends to ripen a bit later. Our first fruits started ripening around 82 days. Plants were not tall and produced a really nice crop of sweet tomatoes with good texture. These will turn heads in your garden when they start ripening. Great tomato for snacking, market sales, dehydrating, garnishing and more. Fun to grow! What a treat! -
Sovietskiy tomato is one of the smoothest and visually cleanest tomatoes that you will ever grow. Very pretty, pink fruits can reach 1 pound but are usually about 8-14 ounces in our garden. Plants are prolific and started ripening their fruits around 80 days from transplant. So this is a mid season variety! When it comes to taste, Sovietskiy is sweet, rich, full-flavored with awesome texture. It's a great sandwich tomato, but I like it best right off the vine. It may also make some great tomato sauce, or sweeter stewed tomatoes. Plants are about 6 feet tall in full sunlight and will need early staking! One for you to try!
-
Giant Of Siebenburgen tomato is a good sized, red oxheart tomato, that stays true to the oxheart family. 8-16 ounce beefsteaks are firmer and have very sweet meat. Plant, like all oxhearts, have wispy leaves and relatively skinny vines. Ours begin to ripen about 82-85 days after transplant. This as another prefect sandwich tomato that will also work well for cooking, snacking and even dehydrating. Fruits are sweet, full flavored and balanced. They have marvelous texture. Vines demonstrated good disease resistance and they produced plenty fruits until season's end. A nice choice for sandwich lovers.
-
Big fat beefsteaks are what you will harvest when you grow out Pridenstrovskiy Ukarainian tomato. Our plants just keep putting them out until Fall. Vines were vibrant from the strat and kept getting bushier by the day. Our biggest fruits weight 1.2 lbs but most were about 12-16 ounces. We harvested the first ripened ones about 88 days after transplant. This tomato is meaty, full-flavored on the sweet side, has excellent texture and aroma and thin skinned. Perfect for slicing for sandwiches, snacking in the garden, cooking and so much more. Stake well and get ready for a bountiful harvest. Good choice as a beefsteak for market vendors too!
-
We planted Sailor's Luck tomato in a place where it could be easily seen in our garden. It took about 75 days before fruits started to ripen. I liked that they were prolific and also appreciated that they had good disease resistance. Sailor's Luck is an oval/blunt heart shaped tomato, which is milder but tomatoey. Bi-colored purple and green striped fruits have visual appeal! It's texture is not firm but not too soft either. It's not sweet or tart and its flavor is very good. It will be a good choice for cooking, fresh salsa, canning, sauce, and snacking.

One of the things I like about Ussuri Tiger tomato is that it has a good niche. This is a mild and juicy fruit that has a fruity aftertaste. At the farmers market, some of our customers loved it because it was not strong, but still delicious. Ussuri Tiger is an antho tomato that sports nice dark stripes over pale yellows. Our first ripened fruits were relatively early, coming in around 70-72 days. Plants were very prolific and hardy. Some of ours were still producing a lot at September's end! These are great for snacking, garnishing, salsa, cooking, canning and so much more! Very good market variety!
-
If production, disease resistance and taste are what you are after, Yubileyny Tarasenko tomato is for you! I have grown a lot of tomatoes from the Tarasenko series and I love them all. But this one is perhaps the most prolific! Five feet tall vines produce huge clusters of pretty, red fruits, that are a bit larger than average cherry size. Fruits have nipples on their blossom end. That's pretty common with Mr Tarasenko's tomatoes. These are well balanced, juicy (but not too much), aromatic and really tasty. Great for snacking, salads, drying, sauces, cooking, canning and so much more! Nice shelf life!
-
Out of stockMadajar Tomato is a large meaty beefsteak variety. I love these for sandwiches and even diced up in salads. It's very meaty and is the perfect sandwich variety. On a sliced platter with other varieties, it stands out. These have very little seeds so save them well. Our biggest fruits reached 18 ounces and the smallest ones were about 10 ounces. It took about 83 days for us to realize our first ripened fruits but it was well worth it. Madajar is sweet, fleshy/meaty, full-flavored and has good old time feel. A winner at the market. Production is good but not prolific. A good beefsteak for anything beefsteak tomatoes can do!
-
Big meaty beefsteaks on tall vibrant vines are what you will get with Tom's Wonder tomato. These are a little late, coming in at 85 days. But if you can wait, you will be well rewarded. Production is also good, so you will have plenty for your sandwiches, yellow sauce, salsas and more! Our plants demonstrated good disease resistance. They were hardy, thick seemed and bushy. Fruits can weigh upwards of one pound. Our biggest was 1.2 pounds (18 ounces) but most averaged around 14 ounces. Stake well for best results. Tom's look great on a sliced platter. Good for cooking, stewing, sliced in salads and more! On the sweet side! See It on YouTube.
-
Taiwan Goddess tomato is a very unique variety. It's the perfect salad and snacking variety! Skinny vines reach about 5 feet tall and produce bunches of about 10-15, plum shaped cherry tomatoes. Nothing else looks like it in the garden, so you will always know where they are. These keep very well after harvest, so no rush to use them. Flavor is sweet and full, nothing missing. Fruits are not seedy. Our first fruits began to ripen about 70 days after transplant. It takes about 1.5 weeks for the entire cluster to ripen. Crunchy, tasty and prolific too! These should do well in containers!
-
or the record, I like this tomato. I was really surprised with Pink Boar tomato in 2018. Honestly, it wasn't one that I had my eyes on. Even after they started ripening I wasn't anxious to taste them. Then one day, I harvested a bunch for seeding... At first glance, 4-8 ounce bi-colored could easily be mistaken for some other varieties. But their distinct and flavorful taste distinguishes them form some others that look alike. This is a very good selection for first-time tomato growers because they have good production, are pretty, tasty and relatively early too. Nice for slicing, snacking and sandwiches!
-
Piennolo del Vesuvio tomato is an Italian variety that's perfect for canning and even sauces. Slightly elongated, cherry fruits have nipples in their blossom end. Five feet tall plants produce many large clusters of fruits. They begin to ripen in 65-70 days after transplant. Our plants also demonstrated nice disease resistance. We had no diseases on them in 2018. I made some killer sauce with these. I also enjoyed some fresh salsa too! These will work well for market sales. They also keep well after harvest. Try dehydrating some for tomato flakes or dried tomatoes for your meals. Prolific!
-
There is so much that can be said about Mule Team tomato! So let's just clear the air. If you are a tomato vendor, grow this one! 5-8 ounce, crack-free fruits are tasty and come in relatively early. Six feet tall plants produce like no other. You'll have plenty for your tomato stand or market sales. But that's not all! Plants are hardy, and vibrant. They are willing producers! As it pertains to taste, Mule Team has good old-time flavor and texture. It's a balanced tomato that's easy to like. Not too strong or mild. It's just right.
-
Here is another good flavored, dwarf cherry. Dwarf Barossa Moon tomato is canary yellow and slightly larger than the average size cherry tomato. When fully ripened they are sweet, not too mild and flavorful. These are perfect for snacking in the garden, salads, dehydrating and more. Just pop one in your mouth and experience a burst of fruitiness. I love these because they are relatively crack-free and begin to ripen pretty early. Ours came in around 70 days after transplant. Plants continued producing until season's end. Dwarf plants are around 2 feet tall and produce clusters of 5 -7 fruits, under thick foliage. Perfect for in-ground and container growing!
-
Full-flavored, rich and earthy is how I will describe Ruby Surprise tomato. Sporting a look all of it's own, this bronze-colored tomato never turned darker, like some others. This gave them a very outstanding visual appeal! I knew just what they were when I walked by the vines. Ruby Surprise is a 8-12 ounce beefsteak tomato that also have good, smooth texture. These work well for sandwiches. Slice some for a platter display, or eat them fresh right out of the garden. Either way you will have a grand experience! Production is good and plants are hardy. A nice addition for your tomato garden!
-
Dwarf Sibirskaya Troika tomato is perhaps the most unique looking dwarf variety we have ever grown. 2-3 feet tall, Tree-Like plants, produce a nice amount of fat, plump tomatoes that make excellent sauce. Fruits are sweeter and mild. They have soft flesh, nice aroma and good stand-alone flavor. Our plants displayed excellent disease resistance. They started ripening their fruits about 75 days after transplant. These will do well in containers, I recommend 5 gallons or larger. They will also do excellently in the ground! Some staking is required, as 2-3 inch elongated fruits can easily weigh plants down. Try these for your sauces. Great for small gardens or patio growing too.
