with some weighing 1 1b. and more. Unlike 
other large fruited varieties, Big Boy to- 
matoes are perfectly smooth, deep globe to 
deep oblate in shape and very firm; scarlet- 
red skin, thick walls, with bright red meaty 
flesh of fine flavor and excellent quality. At

season when many standard varieties decline

semi-upright to spreading; moderately dense 
dark green foliage protects the fruits from 
gun scald. Pkt. 50c.
