Pink Brandywine
Sweetly fragrant and sun-warmed from the first slice, Pink Brandywine delivers a rich, rosy flavor with a tender, juicy heft typical of a true beefsteak heirloom. Its flesh is blush-pink to salmon-rose, beautifully marbled with a soft, custardy texture that holds its shape on the plate while staying delightfully succulent. Grow Pink Brandywine for standout slicer tomatoes—ideal for bold, fresh-forward displays and for luscious sauces that showcase its gentle sweetness and smoky depth.

Sowing Tips
Transplant Conditions
Wait until soil reaches 60°F and nights stay above 50°F before moving outdoors. Harden off for 10 days first.
Expert Note
For best flavor and reduced stress, transplant only when soil is at least 60°F and night temperatures are reliably warm, then plant deep to encourage strong roots.
