The Tomato for People Who Think Tomatoes Should Taste Like Something

Red Brandywine is a classic heirloom known for big, meaty tomatoes and that rich, old-fashioned tomato flavor that's increasingly hard to find at the grocery store. Fruits can reach 1-2 pounds with a deep pinkish-red color and beefsteak-style texture that's made for slicing.

This is an indeterminate variety, meaning the vines continue growing and producing throughout the season rather than giving you one concentrated harvest. Give them plenty of sun, sturdy support and some room. Vines can reach 6-8 feet.

Growing Instructions

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last expected frost. Plant approximately 1/4 inch deep in moist, well-draining seed-starting mix and keep the soil warm, ideally 75-85°F. Germination typically takes 7-14 days.

Harden off seedlings before transplanting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 24-36 inches apart and provide a sturdy cage or stake to support the vines.

Packaging

Seed Therapy uses resealable, recyclable seed packets that contain no plastic and include detailed growing instructions. Seeds are also tested for germination.
