The listing, Heirloom Tomato ✽ BOXCAR WILLIE ✽ 15 Seeds ✽ Organic has ended.

This is very productive heirloom that produces 10-15 ounce fruits. The tomatoes are red in color with dark orange undertones, extremely juicy, and have that good, old fashioned flavor! A great slicing and canning tomato. I had so many this year that I used them for an amazing canned marinara. These would also be perfect for tomato juice. Very disease resistant and productive even in the 2012 record high heat and drought of the midwest.

This Auction: You will be receiving 15 seeds from my garden. They will be sent First Class mail. I only take Paypal for International bidders. I will also combine any additional auction seeds (within 5 days) for no additional shipping charge. I am happy to say that my seeds tested 99-100% germination within 2 weeks at a temp of 70°F in the spring of 2012. Excellent for beginners!

Propagation Method: From seed, sow seeds indoors 6 weeks before last spring frost. Sow 2-3 seeds per pot and thin to one plant per container. After four weeks, transplant seedlings to larger pots, and about 10 days before the last spring frost, begin hardening the plants to the outdoors. Transplant your plants to a sunny, highly composted location when soil temperatures are at least 55 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Stake or cage the plants for support and to prevent sprawling on the ground.
