Enjoy big yields of gourmet flavor and unbeatable plate appeal! This beefsteak offers somewhat smaller fruit than most, its pinkish-crimson globes averaging 5 to 8 ounces. But every bite is packed with true tomato tang, rich meaty flavor, and a sugary, juicy mix of solids and gels. Pink-a-licious is a tomato lover’s treat!
This determinate plant sets its harvest all at once, making it easy to gather the fruit and then can, freeze, or sauce it over a period of just a week or two. If you want to enjoy the unbelievably rich flavor of homegrown tomatoes year-round, Pink-a-licious is the one to grow!
Best of all, Pink-a-licious Hybrid is widely adapted. This tomato is as easy to grow in short-season, rainy climates as it is in long, hot summers and drier conditions. Very resistant to most tomato diseases and pests, it brings you healthy plants that set big crops every time.
Specifically, Pink-a-licious is resistant to fusarium wilt races 0 and 1, gray leaf spot, tomato wilt virus, and verticillium wilt. What this means for you is that it will get up and grow, bloom heavily, and set more fruit than you might expect. Get your Mason jars ready! Pink-a-licious is coming!
Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55°F. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 2 to 2 1/2 feet apart. Pkt is 15 seeds.
