682 GIANT PONDEROSA TOMATO 



Hlagnineent In Size, Delicious In Flavor (115 days) 'Sn 



Although essentially a home garden Tomato, and not suitable for ship- 

 ping, many owners of roadside stands have, within the last few years, 

 found that Ponderosa 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.
