682 GIANT PONDEROSA TOMATO 



Masnitieent in Size, Delicious in Flavor (115 days) ^ 



Although fssciitially a homo garden Tomato, and not suit- 

 able for shipping, many owners of roadside stands have, 

 within the last few years, found that Poncferosa meets with 

 a ready sale when offered. In some sections the sales have 

 been quite heavy, no doubt on account of its gigantic size, 

 and when eaten, for its mild and delicious sub-acid flavor 

 which is preferred by many people. Although introduced 

 to cultivation over 45 years ago, this most attractive 

 purplish pink colored Tomato is, today, one of the most 

 popular and in the greatest demand. Its vigorous vines 

 undoubtedly produce the most gigantic Tomatoes ever 

 known, and in great profusion if the soil is not too rich. 

 It has been successfully bred with the object of filling up 

 the seed cavities so that it is now as solid as a Beefsteak 

 and almost seedless.
