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.

These tomato's are by far the best tasting on a sandwich or made into a sauce! Grown is Jersey Even Better. YUM
IAM srry to say I wasn't able to plant them due to a severe storm took my green House down. I pray I'll have another one up for next year.
It is early, prolific, produces all season here in Portland, Oregon. The starts were put out in mid May. My first ripe tomato appeared within 60 days of setting out. The bulk I have picked in the last week of August and first week of September. I got 30 lbs. from five plants in the past few days of early September. Meaty and sweet. No diseases. Good fresh and for canning sauce. Closest tomato to perfect I have grown.
