75 days. (Determinate) The Rutgers Tomato was developed by crossing Marglobe with JTD. Rutgers produces vibrant red, round tomato fruits on a strong, disease resistant vine. Tomatoes average 2-4 inches across and 2-3 inches high. The average weight of Rutger's luscious fruit is about 1 pound per fruit. Makes a great slicer for sandwiches or salads.

Developed by Rutgers Univ. for Campbell's Soup Company in 1934.

Contains 25 heirloom seeds

Sandwich to sauce, a must!

Easy to grow, I weave it into my welded wire fence trellis. Big enough for slicing, firm enough for chopping for salads, and great to make salza and sauces with. A more robust flavor than beefsteak or romas so it is great sliced or sauced for a robust tomato flavor. Produces better than romas here in our hot humid summers. No blossom end rot with these. LUV EM!

Tasty and loves Arizona heat

Rutgers is probably the most dependable tomato I grow. It is a bit thick skinned so resists cracking--an important consideration here in Arizona where it's hot and dry and I tend not to water as regularly as I should. It has great flavor as an added bonus too. Vigorous vines need support. I normally use 4'tall welded wire cages but I think it might do even better on a trellis.

Great Garlic

This was my first year growing garlic. I live in Western PA and the temperatures and weather have been erratic. Despite this, I had a great yield, no rotting with all of the rain, and enough to use as seed garlic this year. Tasty and robust to fluctuation weather conditions. Highly recommended.

No kidding - best producer, taste

Oh Mary! I have never grown such an amazing tomato! I had no idea how well these would do here in Texas. Love the rich color and taste for my sauce.

One Happy Customer

Mary is one kind lady!
I asked if she would be willing to sell 300 of the non woven pouches without the coir (I already have what I need) and within 24 hours she sent me a link for exactly that.
This has been a lovely experience ordering from this company and I look forward to a wonderful growing season in the approaching year.
It brings me great satisfaction to be a patron of such a kind and gracious business! It's exciting, what might I find next...?

Cardoon is so pretty and you can eat the leafy stems

Abundant purple bells!

I say it over and over. Mary's Heirloom Seeds are the best at germination and growing! These purple beauty bell peppers are so abundant and tasty. My favorite bell and they seem to like my garden as well. Yes the picture has other of Mary's Heirloom Seeds peppers but these stand out in numbers and taste.
