Owens purple tomato is a very nice tasting, black variety. I especially love that plants are hardy and show great disease resistance in our gardens. Fruits are darker colored like Black Krim, and weigh between 6 and 16 ounces. Most of ours were around 10-14. Fruits are borne on clusters of 3-5 and begin to ripen about 75 days after transplant. Perfectly balanced, this gem will delight you with it's richness. It also has some earthiness and some acidity but it all evens out with other complimentary flavors. This is a very good tomato. Perfect for sandwiches, cooking, fresh salsa garnish and more. A great choice for any tomato garden -
Varsovia is a dark purple tomato that originates in Poland. Seeds were given to my friend Terry at Secret Seed Cartel in France, she then shared some with me. I grew them out in 2021. This variety has tremendous appeal and is a very beautiful fruit when fully ripened. You'll definitely be able to differentiate between other purples/blacks because it's one of the darkest fruits. Plants produce plentifully and fruits begin ripening around mid-season. Very eye pleasing variety that has a rich, earthy taste that is complete. Try these, you'll love them. -

West Virginia Penitentiary Tomato
A true old fashioned heirloom, West Virginia Penitentiary tomato dates back to the 1940s -50's. It's is said to have been grown by prisoners in the State, then sold to local markets. This red tomato has a nice balanced taste of sweets and tarts and makes a wonderful tomato sandwich. Plants were about 6 feet tall and produced plenty of 8-14 ounce fruits.

On October 7th I pulled all of my plants and got plenty of greens from these to make pickles. Truly a blessing, especially for the heirloom enthusiast! -
Amateur's Dream Tomato
What a wonderful find for us this year! Amateur's Dream tomato, along with 200 rare types, were gifted to me by a tomato loving friend.
