About Israel

Seeds sent to Gary Ibsen of TomatoFest in 2015 by Cori MacNaughton, Doyle,TN, who collected seeds from his neighbor’s brother, who has been growing this heirloom variety for 30+ years. TomatoFest introduced Israel seeds commercially to North America in 2016. Indeterminate, regular leaf plant produces heavy yields of 10-14 oz., pink, round, oblate, juicy, beefsteak tomatoes with big, rich, complex, old-fashioned tomatoey flavors. A good choice for a sandwich or salad tomato. RARE.
