Great flavor, matures mid-season before other beefsteaks, and has great heirloom flavor.
History: Developed by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms in Napa, CA. This port wine-colored beefsteak with metallic green stripes may be the prettiest tomato you’ve ever grown. The flesh is pink with yellow streaks and the flavor is outstanding - sweet, rich, dark heirloom tomato flavor. Be sure to bring this one to the tomato-tasting contest. Beautiful, early, and sweet flavor.
Open-pollinated (65-75 days)
Plant Habit: Indeterminate Plant Size: 4-6’. Fruit Color: Bi-Color Red with green stripes. Shape: Flattened Globe. Size: 8-12 oz. 10 seeds
All of our seeds are GMO-free.
This tomato just kept producing when other big tomatoes stopped. I had late fall tomatoes fresh out of the garden into October. The color in a salad can’t be matched.
I purchased a packet of these seeds in February to germinate indoors along with your Brandywine Tomatoes. All of the Brandwine seeds sprouted but only 5 of the Berkeley's did. So disappointed.
These were so beautiful and tasty! Great for salsas or for making Caprese Salads, they are so pretty!
Super easy to grow, no disease issues, resilient, and LOADS of huge, juicy tomatoes. Love the flavor. Kids ate them right of the vine the rest went into BLTs, sauce, and the dehydrator. These will ALWAYS be in my garden from now on
we loved growing these from seed. excellent germination, and strong little plants. however, in the garden they were rarely harvested by us before the squirrels got it. I did not like how long we had to wait for these to ripen. If I had a rodent defense, id grow these again. But it was hard to watch them develop and not fully ripen before being taken. We did not have the same problem with smaller varieties of tomatoes.
Sorry you didn't get to enjoy the tomatoes! Those pesky varmints!

I tried these purple Cherokee seeds on 2024. This is the first time growing these purple Cherokees and were amazed at the ease of germination and taste
These germinated in two days. I started them in midsummer and they fruited by late fall in my zone 10b garden and are overwintering just fine. I’ll have more to harvest by late spring. I made my red sauce for pozole for Christmas with my harvest!
Big Chiles with just enough heat to add to green enchilada's. The flavor after roasting is fantastic. Since green chile roasting is not a local thing in Eastern Washington we us a weed burner. The smell of roasting peppers is heavenly.
My favorite green chili to grow. Plenty of heat and after roasting sit perfectly on a hamburger. Also my wonderful wife makes Puelo Chili jam that is a real crowd pleaser
I was looking for a spicier New Mexico red chile and this was awesome! It is a beautiful looking pepper and the taste is superb.
Very productive plants even up here in New England!
Plants were quite bushy and full of peppers. Great flavor. Made a wonderful little Ristra with some of the later harvested peppers. Will continue to grow these yearly.
These plants were super healthy all season long and produced a LOT of fruit. They'll add heat and color to any dish. They made my cowboy candy and pickled jalapeños extra special!
Very good germination rate and super abundant and delicious peppers!. I had them in 10g and 5g fabric pots and they very well the last two years. Amazing to smoke and dry / freeze to have throughout the year! I just made a spicy brown porter mustard with scotch bonnets! Also made an amazing roasted scotch bonnet hot sauce! yum!
These Hatch Chiles are flavorful with a good amount of heat! Each plant produced a good amount of peppers! I will be growing these again!
These grow large. We roast them and peel them and make green chile from them. My husband adores them.
Made Chili Mac for my Step son and he ate it all in one sitting.
I plant 10 plants every year.
These are definitely ornamental, they add a nice touch of color to your garden.. and they are spicy too!
Grew the purple jalapenos last summer. Slow to get going, but ended up with a nice compact bush in a pot. I am trying to overwinter them by bringing the.pot inside for the winter. It is still growing, small purple peppers about 1" long.
These germinated and grew beautifully, was happy to use them to create the delicious green chile of my home but in a new country!
