Old German Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) is a beloved heirloom variety that originated in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, USA. Known for its striking appearance, this tomato produces large, beefsteak-type fruits with a beautiful marbled coloration, golden yellow skin with vibrant red streaks that run through the flesh. The fruits are typically hefty, often weighing between 1 to 2 pounds, and are known for their mild, sweet flavor and juicy, meaty texture, perfect for fresh eating and slicing
Old German tomato plants are indeterminate, meaning they grow and produce fruit continuously throughout the season. The plants are vigorous and can reach over 6 feet in height when staked or trellised, with lush, dense foliage that provides good sun protection for the fruit. This variety is appreciated for its unique appearance, rich taste, and relatively low acidity, making it a popular choice among heirloom tomato growers and enthusiasts
