This heirloom variety produces large, dark purple fruits on medium sized plants. Plant in full sun, in fertile, well drained soil.

Also known as ‘Jubilee’, this tomato was introduced in the early 1880’s. It bears yellow fruits which are low in acid compared to red tomatoes. Fruits have a very mild, pleasing flavour.
Indeterminate plants will require trellising or caging.
Plant in full sun, in fertile, well-drained soil.

This is one of the most famous heirlooms. These indeterminate plants produce large, pinkish red tomatoes with an exotic, sweet flavour. You’ll need to stake or cage these! 78 days from transplant

This is the best heirloom tomato we know of for growing in pots! The plants only grow up to about 1-2 ft tall (hence ‘tiny’), and are just loaded with bright red mini cherry tomatoes about 1in in diameter. They also ripen earlier than most other heirloom varieties at around 55 days from transplanting. No trellising/ staking required- although they can still benefit from cages. Expect alot of the fruit to ripen at the same time.

Another one of our favourites! This heirloom produces plenty of deep purple fruit which are resistant to cracking. The tomatoes are about 1/2 oz, and have an incredible sweet, complex flavour.
It’s got an indeterminate growing habit, so you’ll need to trellis/stake or cage it. Expect ripe tomatoes around 65 days after transplanting. Instead of having 1 short harvest window, they produce over several months- as long as the plant is healthy.

An heirloom Italian variety (can you tell by the name?) which bears large, sandwich sized deep red tomatoes. Excellent flavour, with more meatiness than other varieties. These are indeterminate plants, so they’ll need to be trellised, staked, or caged. Plant in full sun, in fertile well drained soil. (4-in pots)

A tasty yellow cherry tomato that is pear shaped- just like the name implies. This will be a colourful addition to any salad. Indeterminate plants require staking or trellising. Plant in fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Very high yielding.
