Tomato Mortgage Lifter HEIRLOOM
Botanical Name: Solanum lycopersicum
These tomato seeds grow a large, very meaty flavoursome fruit (up to 400g each). The Tomato (Beefsteak) Mortgage Lifter Heirloom variety was named by a 1930's farmer whose bumper crop of this variety enabled him to save his farm from repossession. Who would have thought tomato seeds or any vegetable seeds could bring about such a great outcome. Fabulous all-round tomato, developed from Italian, German and English 'beefsteak' varieties. Staking is required for this variety. High yields of up to 16kg per plant.
Heirloom Garden: From the golden days of gardening, heirloom seeds have been saved and treasured through the generations.
We hope you enjoy these vegetable seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!
