Hawaiian Pineapple

• An heirloom with an uncertain history: Hawaiian Pineapple is an American heirloom whose exact origin remains unclear. There are references to cultivation in Indiana during the 1970s, but this history has not been conclusively verified.
• Large, irregular beefsteak tomatoes: The fruits usually weigh 300 to 500 grams and can occasionally reach as much as 1 kilogram. They are flattened, irregularly shaped and often ribbed across much of their surface. The orange skin develops red highlights, especially towards the blossom end.
• A tropical, fruity flavour: The meaty flesh contains relatively few seeds. When fully ripe, the tomatoes develop a remarkable fruity taste with exotic aromas reminiscent of pineapple. Slicing them reveals a beautiful mixture of warm yellow-orange and red tones.
• A vigorous indeterminate plant: The plants have an indeterminate growth habit, regular foliage and vigorous development. Sturdy support is important because of the weight of the large fruits.
• An extended harvest season: In our growing experience, Hawaiian Pineapple produces good, steady harvests from midseason onwards, potentially continuing until the first frost. Allow the fruits to ripen fully for their distinctive aroma. Due to limited seed availability, each packet contains a maximum of 10 seeds.
