Burgess Catalog around 1950. Somewhere along the way, the same tomato name was used to sell a very similar pink tomato, listed by a popular seed vendor. The vendor\u2019s listing states that the tomato is a \u201cdark pink,\u201d but still calls it \u201cEarly Wonder.\u201d Seeds saved from this pink fruit by other growers have since been called \u201cEarly Wonder Pink.\u201d I do not really know if this is a pink cross from the original red, or if the popular vendor had the wrong variety but did not realize that it was the wrong color. In any case, I have the pink version (red flesh and clear skin), and it is a winner! The fruits are smooth and beautiful, as well as larger than I would expect from an early variety. In fact, this is not what I would consider a 55 day variety, as advertised. It was more like 75-80 days. The flesh is smooth, and the flavor is a really excellent balance of sweet and tart. Early Wonder and Early Wonder, Pink are both described as determinate, and mine was easy to grow in a 5 gal bucket. Notice the small crack in a fruit in my photo. We had just received deluge rains, and all of my tomatoes were cracking. Early Wonder, Pink, showed a little cracking but not as much as most others did. The core is small with little wasted fruit. Highly recommended.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7785,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[10,38,58,12],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-7784","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-pink-tomatoes","product_cat-round","product_cat-compact-varieties","product_cat-bunny-hop-seeds","first","outofstock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/7784","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\/7785"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7784"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=7784"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=7784"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=7784"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
