Lycopersicon lycopersicum
Naturehills.com carries thousands of products including the Tomato - Beefmaster
from the Annuals family.
The Tomato Beefmaster, 'Lycopersicon lycopersicum', is one of the largest beefsteak types. The meaty tomatoes are big enough to overlap burgers and sanwiches. Beefmasters are nearly seedless and they have the fine beefsteak flavor. They shine as a slicer and the good-flavored fruit is tolerant of cracking and peeling. Some may weigh up to 2 pounds. Beefmaster was bred for resistance to verticillium and fusarium wilt and nematodes.
Tomatoes should be planted outside after the last average frost date. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Tomatoes prefer well drained soil that is high in organic matter. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day.
