Notes

'Big Brandy' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Big Brandy') is a vegetable for the food garden, grown for its scarlet-pink beefsteak fruit with rich flavor. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun. The fruit has high acid and sugar content and can weigh up to one pound. It is indeterminate, so it keeps growing and fruiting, and you can harvest in 78 days.

Pairs well with Lemon basil, Pepper, French lavender, and Black Beauty squash.
