Tomato oxheart

The Oxheart tomato, distinguished by its unique heart-shaped fruits, is a cherished variety among gardeners and culinary enthusiasts alike. These tomatoes are renowned for their large size, often weighing in at several hundred grams each, making them one of the heavier hitters in the tomato world. Their flesh is firm and meaty with few seeds, enveloped in a deep, vibrant red skin that's as appealing to the eye as it is to the palate. This variety's rich, sweet flavor, with subtle hints of acidity, makes it a versatile favorite in the kitchen, perfect for slicing into salads, cooking down into robust sauces, or simply enjoying fresh from the vine. Growing Oxheart tomatoes can be a rewarding experience for gardeners of all levels, thanks to their vigorous vines that require staking or caging to support their hefty fruits. They thrive in warm, sunny conditions, with well-draining soil being essential for their development. Starting seeds indoors approximately 6-8 weeks before the last frost date is recommended, with transplanting occurring once the threat of frost has passed. With proper care, including regular watering and occasional feeding, Oxheart tomatoes will begin to bear fruit in the mid to late summer, offering a bountiful harvest that extends until the first frosts of fall. Their distinctive shape, exceptional taste, and satisfying texture make Oxheart tomatoes a standout variety that brings both beauty and flavor to the garden and table.

Grows well in fertile well-drained soil, in full sun. Water well during dry spells and side-dress with compost tea every 2-3 weeks. Provide stake support for the sprawling vine.
