Tomato Red Pear (106-107)
Our bestselling tomato! 250+ seeds per 1g packet.
Franchi's Red Pear tomato is an old North Italian variety specially selected by Franchi Sementi. It is a red, pear-shaped beefsteak. An outstanding producer of huge (as in 8-18 ounce) very tasty fruit. Great fresh eating. Early for such a large plant (70-75 days). This is not the small pear shaped tomato called red pear by U.S. seed companies. Pear shaped with vertical ribs - a must try. Really meaty containing few seeds. Indeterminate.

The Best I Have Grown
I have grown tomatoes for 50 years and these are the best I have ever had. Firm, sweet, large fruit that can be eaten fresh or in a sauce. Plants grew over 7 feet and were loaded. I have already bought my seeds for next year and will no longer grow any other full size tomato. Everyone I gave tomatoes to raved and wanted more.

Huge Tomatoes Produce for the South!
This is my all time favorite tomato. In Atlanta (zone7/8) it produces from early July through October. Lots of tomatoes of large size. These are excellent for fresh tomato sauces or main course fresh tomato recipes as they are meaty with few seeds. I have grown them for 3 seasons and they have produced under very hot and dry weather, excessively rainy weather, and (this year), perfect growing weather. A winner.

Old Faithful
Do you want a big crop of great tasting tomatoes? Do you want a reliable, no nonsense tomato? Do you want great taste? This one has it all. My wife uses it for fresh sauce: 2 tomatoes makes a very nice fresh sauce for 1/2 pound of pasta.
