Vine. This potato-leaf type is exceptionally early for an open-pollinated beefsteak tomato. An heirloom wonder, Pruden's purple is actually more of a distinctive pink. The flattened, slightly ribbed fruits can grow up to 1lb and it has smooth, thin skin that resists cracking. The flesh is firm and meaty with a delicious, rich flavour that is highly rated. Great eaten raw in sandwiches and salads as well as in sauces.

Timing

Start indoors in early spring over bottom heat. When seedlings germinate, remove from the heat and grow under bright lights. Grow seedlings on for 6-8 weeks at around 10°C (50°F). Early season tomatoes can be planted out once night time temperatures are reliably above 7°C (45°F) - or later. Other types should be transplanted out when night time lows are 10°C (50°F) or warmer - or later. Optimal soil temperature for germination: 25-35°C (68-95°F). With bottom heat seeds should germinate in 7-14 days.
