Customers praised these heirloom tomato seeds for their "beautiful" appearance with unique stripes and "amazing flavor." Most reported excellent germination and production into late fall. Seeds grow well in short seasons and high altitudes. However, one shopper experienced poor germination rates, and some noted longer ripening times.

  • Super easy to grow, no disease issues, resilient, and LOADS of huge, juicy tomatoes.
  • These were so beautiful and tasty! Great for salsas or for making Caprese Salads.

Most of my seeds didn't sprout

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.

Late producer

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.

The best tomatoes!

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

great seedling but too long a wait

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!

Great flavor for an early beefsteak tomato!

I planted these short-season tomatoes because we live in Colorado where crazy late freezes in the spring and early winters are standard, so we have a short growing season. I love beefsteak heirloom tomatoes, but find that they often are not ripe before the first frost/snowstorm comes. So when I read that this tomato was earlier than other beefsteaks, I had to try it. And success, we had a great harvest of RIPE tomatoes for a change in August! I will keep growing these, the tomatoes are beautiful jewels, and are very juicy and tasty.

Cool looking tomato!

These really are beautiful with a metallic sheen – and quite stunning inside with a nice deep rich red color. These made great caprese salads!

Great taste

These are totally delicious. The color is cool but they were a little tricky for me to pick in time.

What an excellent tomato!

I live at 8000 ft in northern New Mexico, so always looking for good short season varieties that produce well. This one fit the bill to a T! Started them inside in late February and the all sprouted. By August I was harvesting large 12oz irregularly-shaped meaty tomatoes that were reddish brown with green stripes and oh so delicious! Can't recommend these enough and it was my first try at container gardening from seed, so they can't be too hard to grow!

Amazing flavor and beauty!

These were the talk of the garden last season, everyone couldn't believe how cool these tomatoes look when ripe. They also taste amazing!
