Huge heirloom beefsteak tomato named for the Amana Colonies in Iowa. These organic tomato seeds produce big, regular leaf plants that produce above average amounts of beautiful light-orange, irregular shaped (fluted) heirloom tomatoes that can grow to 2 pounds or more, with an average diameter of 5 inches. Excellent sweet, almost tropical fruit flavors. This tomato variety has been included in my tomato garden for more than 20 years. A winner!
Planting
Start seeds indoors six to eight weeks before the last spring frost, and transplant in late spring after night have warmed. Sow outdoors in climates with 120 or more frost-free days. Germinate best at 75℉. Plant in sunny spot. Feed every two weeks with high phosphorous fertilizer.
Note
Ripen on the vine for best flavor. Vigorous 4-6' vines require tall, sturdy stakes or trellises.
