Tomato - Big Rainbow (Indeterminate)

The Big Rainbow Tomato is a popular ribbed beefsteak variety that produces 1-2 lb fruits. A favorite among gardeners for its marbled palette of orange, red, and yellow skin coloring that continues through to the flesh. Taming all that wildness is a little pot of gold flavor that is well-balanced between acidic and sweet. Heavy producer, so stake well.
