About Brandywine Pink

Brandywine Pink is the original Brandywine variety with large, irregular pink fruits and the quintessential old-fashioned tomato flavor. The potato-leaf plants are vigorous but susceptible to disease. The exceptional flavor more than compensates for the challenges of growing it.

Growing Tips

Needs long warm season. Very susceptible to blight — provide airflow, avoid overhead watering, and mulch heavily. Worth every extra effort.
