A highly prized heirloom, of the Brandywine family, dating back to at least the early 1900s. Vigorous potato leaved plants produce very large, ribbed and iregular shaped fruits which are highly flavoured, fruity and delicious.
Indeterminate, potato leaved
Indeterminate plants are vigorous plants with a vining tendency. They set their fruits at intervals along their stems, and will readily grow side shoots and suckers (shoots from ground level). They need good, strong support, and it is advisable to remove the majority of the side shoots and suckers unless you have plenty of space and fertile soil to allow them to grow to their full potential. See the guide on pruning indeterminates in the resources section of the website for tips.
Sow Jan-April indoors
10-15 open-pollinated seeds
