About Huge Lemon Oxheart
Introduced to Seed Savers Exchange by member M.D. Gonzales of Waynesville, Ohio. First offered in the Seed Savers 1997 Yearbook by Seed Savers Heritage Farm, Decorah, Iowa, who got seeds from M.D. Gonzales of Waynesville, Ohio. Despite the name, it is not a heart-shaped tomato.
Indeterminate, regular leaf plants produce 12-16 oz., very large, creamy-yellow fruits with pinkish blush at the blossom end. Fruits are irregularly shaped, not really hearts, more like beefsteaks. Very juicy, with excellent balanced flavor that gets sweeter at the peak of the season. Since the fruits are rather pale and have clear skin.
