Everett’s Rusty Oxheart

• A rare tomato with an extraordinary colour palette: Everett’s Rusty Oxheart is an uncommon variety whose precise origin remains unknown. Its fruits immediately stand out through their unusual combination of rusty brown, bronze, green and soft reddish tones.
• Large oxheart tomatoes with bronze-coloured skin: The fruits generally weigh between 200 and 400 grams and are heart-shaped to slightly flattened, sometimes with noticeably ribbed shoulders. Their skin displays warm bronze and rusty colours, mixed with green and reddish shades that give each fruit its own distinctive appearance.
• Surprisingly colourful flesh and a fruity flavour: The flesh is predominantly green, beautifully marbled with pink and yellow. Its flavour is rich and distinctly fruity, with notes reminiscent of the well-known bicolour tomato Ananas Noire. A remarkable combination of appearance and taste, especially enjoyable when eaten fresh.
• A slender plant with airy foliage: Everett’s Rusty Oxheart has an indeterminate growth habit, fine stems and relatively sparse, regular foliage. The plants can reach approximately two metres in height. Despite their light appearance, good support is important for carrying the substantial fruits.
• Harvests during the second half of the season: Yields are moderate to good, with production concentrated mainly in the later part of the growing season. The variety is particularly well suited to hot, dry summers and will appeal to gardeners who appreciate unusual oxheart tomatoes with a pronounced fruity flavour.
