Another must grow tomato for me ‘Blue Beauty’.
Blue Beauty is a Brad Gates (Wild Boar Farms) introduction, selected from a cross between ‘Beauty King’ and a blue tomato.
The fruit is a meaty pink beefsteak-type slicer with a lovely dark blue anthocyanin top, weighing up to 350g. Flavour is good, sweet with no acid along with its outstanding antioxidant content.
Gorgeous, deep blue-black shoulders make this unique among slicing types. The fruit holds well on the vine and is pretty sunburn and crack resistant.
Like all anthocyanin tomatoes, the more direct, unobscured light received, the darker the shoulder splashes.
Well worth a grow – seeds available from Nrtomatoseed.com

They’re beautiful. At first, I figured they were a cross of Black Beauty haha
Give them to me immediately!
Isn’t that the guy who put out Brad’s atomic grape tomatoes? If so, I love those tomatoes but they have been so difficult to start from seed. And I have grown tomatoes and other, more finicky plants from seed for forever. How were these in starting and growing?
