Prudens Purple Tomato Seedlings
The folks at Phillies Bridge Farm in Gardiner, New York, first introduced us to Prudens Purple. Its flavor–comparable to the top beefsteak types–is rich and delicious; its deep pink color (not really purple…) and traditional tomato shape exude genuine tomato-ness; and its earliness and tolerance of cool or otherwise challenging conditions make it a reliable friend in the tomato patch.
