About Reinhard’s Purple Heart
Reinhard’s Purple Heart is a variety developed by Reinhard Kraft of Neukirchen, Germany from a cross made in 2007 between Cherokee Green and various pink heart-shaped varieties. The main goal of this cross was to find a green heart-shaped tomato, and this goal was achieved, because in addition to Reinhard’s Purple Heart, in 2015 Reinhard’s Green Heart and Reinhard’s Chocolate Heart were also released. Indeterminate, regular leaf plants and wispy foliage. Beautiful, dark purple-black heart-shaped fruits, weight about 180-450g. Outstanding, very rich tomato flavor, sweet and juicy yet meaty. Midseason, about 75-80 days from transplant.
