The Brandywine Pink Tomato, a cherished heirloom variety, is a true jewel of the garden. With its lush, rosy-hued skin that glistens under the sun, this tomato is a visual delight. The large, beefsteak fruits, often weighing up to a pound, are a tantalizing blend of rich pink and crimson. The smooth, slightly ribbed exterior encases a succulent, meaty interior that bursts with rich, tangy-sweet flavors, making it a favorite among both home gardeners and gourmet chefs.
Growing Brandywine Pink Tomatoes is a delightful endeavor, as they thrive in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.

The lush green foliage provides a stunning contrast to the ripening tomatoes, creating a picturesque tableau in your garden. Regular watering, combined with full sun exposure, ensures that these tomatoes develop their signature flavor and vibrant coloration.
For those seeking a touch of elegance in their vegetable patch, the Brandywine Pink Tomato is an excellent choice.

Whether you're an experienced gardener or just beginning your horticultural journey, the Brandywine Pink Tomato promises an easy-to-grow, rewarding experience that will leave your taste buds and eyes equally satisfied.

How to Save Seeds
Tomatoes are self pollinating, so separate by 50ft is sufficient. Harvest tomatoes when ripe and you can even let them set for a week or so before saving seeds. Once you are ready to harvest simply cut in half scoop out seeds and pulp into a mason jar of water for fermenting. Then seal jar with a lid and place in and warm place out of direct sunlight. After 5 to 7 days of fermenting pour out seeds floating on top of the water along with mold and then pour rest of the good seeds, on the bottom, over a fine mess strainer to catch them. Dry well in fine mesh or paper towels but turn often so they don't stick to paper.
