OREGON SPRING TOMATO (68 days) -

Yields are high and flavor is great, nicely acidic.

Earliana (68 days) determinate

The 'Earliana' tomato was developed at the turn-of-the-century as growers attempted to bring the earliest tomato to market. It was first offered commercially in 1900 by Johnson and Stokes. We consider this a perfect market tomato because of it's visual appeal and it's wonderful sweet/tart flavors. Earliana produces well until frost and appears to have good disease resistance. A good salad and canning tomato.
