|  Earl of Edgecombe
When the 6th Earl of Edgecombe died
in the 1960's, the heir to the
title of 7th Earl was a relative in New Zealand who was a sheep farmer
at the time. When he traveled to England to claim the title, he brought
this tomato with him. The seeds for this New Zealand heirloom were made
available through Carolyn Male, who found it the best of her 1996 seed
trials. The smooth, 3-inch, round, uniformly ripening fruits are
beautiful orange globes, typically borne in clusters of two or more.
Flesh is firm, meaty and exceptionally flavorful. | |
