Hungarian Heart Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)
A heart-shaped beefsteak Hungarian heirloom variety that has wonderful flavor and is great for fresh-eating, paste or canning with very few seeds. This variety originated around 1900 and was first seen in the farmers markets around Budapest. Fruits routinely exceed 1 lb. and range from a deep pink to red color. (Indeterminate)
Origin: We brought the parent seed home to our garden from a trip to Hungary to visit our cousins who have grown this variety for many years in the town of Göd, Hungary.

Germination rate: 95% - tested 10/17/24
