Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T). Huge Lemon Oxheart - ripe fruit. 2013-09-14.

B.C KO T

Indet., regular leaf plants produce very large creamy yellow fruits with pinkish blush at the blossom end, up to 1 lb. Fruits are irregularly shaped, not hearts in my opinion, more like beefsteaks. Very juicy, with excellent balanced flavor that gets sweeter at the peak of the season. Since the fruits are rather pale and have clear skin, I would actually call it a 'white' tomato. (20 seeds / packet)

Norbert R. Pikovsky, Johnstown, Pennsylvania (PA PI N2) 08
