This 5 oz. slicer has stunning colors inside and out!
Winner of the sweetest tomato award at the 2017 National Heirloom Expo. This 5 oz. slicer has stunning colors inside and out! The meaty tomatoes ripen to yellow, then more towards orange with blue anthocyanin shoulders when very ripe. The sweet, juicy flesh is marbled yellow to red, and the flavor is fruity and superb.
