In addition to having the largest fruit, it produced them more abundantly than any other beefsteak dwarf plant I have grown. This impressive dwarf is another newly developed winner from my friend TimothyT in NC. TimothyT described the interesting history: \u201cThis tasty pink beefsteak is from the dwarf line of Red House Free Standing x Pruden&#8217;s Purple. Alma&#8217;s Century Pink is named after Alma Kale. She was a feisty lady who could grow anything and was a garden mentor for over 40 years. On her 100th birthday she chose her favorite out of 4 of my pink tomatoes and ACP was it. She passed away later that year and went as she always lived, feisty and happy. Alma&#8217;s Century Pink is a very stocky, stout potato leaf dwarf that grows to 4&#8242; by end of season. It has good to very good production of large pink beefsteaks that are downright tasty; both sweet and good old Southern tang stand out. In a 5-gallon bucket I average 7oz-10oz fruit with some up to 14oz-19oz. Grown in a 7-gallon container or in the raised beds I average 10oz-14oz with some up to 18oz-22oz, so I prefer to grow in larger containers or in ground.\u201d<br \/>\nThe fruits I harvested were excellently sweet and juicy with a plump, yielding texture. Thank you TimothyT!<br \/>\n<strong>NOTE: Alma gave me lots of huge fruits this year but they were almost all meat\/flesh and had very few seeds. I have a very limited number of packets for this season. One packet per order please.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10820,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[31,12,59,10,114],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-10819","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-beefsteak","product_cat-bunny-hop-seeds","product_cat-dwarf-varieties","product_cat-pink-tomatoes","product_cat-timothyt-originations","first","instock","sold-individually","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10819","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10820"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10819"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10819"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10819"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10819"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
