Mamie Brown’s Pink

Solanum lycopersicum
HOW TO GROW TOMATO

Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost, plant out 1–2 weeks after last frost. Requires bottom heat for good germination. Pot up to 3-4” pots when first true leaves develop, bury to first leaves. Gradually harden off in full sun 1–2 weeks before transplanting after last frost. Transplant out stocky 8 to 10” tall plants. Apply super phosphate for high early yields and to avoid blossom-end rot. Too much nitrogen causes excessive vegetation. If fruit cracks, reduce watering. Indeterminate varieties are trellised, fruit ripens over an extended period. Prune to one leader pinching suckers in leaf axles every 7 to 10 days. Thirty days before last frost prune leaders to ripen remaining fruit. Determinate or bush varieties do not need pruning or trellising. Soil pH 4.3-6.6. Hardiness zones 4. Annual.

Days from maturity calculated from the date of transplant. Average 8,400 seeds per ounce. Federal germination standard: 75%. Usual seed life: 4-10 years. Isolation distance for seed saving: 75-150 feet.

Large pink beefsteak, flat to slightly heart shaped, double fruits are common. Meaty solid center, few seeds, unusual for a beefsteak tomato. Balanced sweet acidity flavor. Donated to the SSE in 1995 by Alicia Brown-Matthes of Iowa. This variety was a favorite of Alicia’s grandmother, Mamie Brown. Alicia remembers seeing it growing in Mamie’s garden when she visited her grandparents in West Virginia during childhood summer vacations in the 1930s. Alicia received seeds of the variety from her aunt Louise, Mamie’s daughter. The family most often uses the fruit for canning and making juice. Best in dry climates, avoid over watering. Tags: Type: Indeterminate, Harvest: Mid, Color: Pink Purple, Size: Giant, Shape: Flat, Specialty: Canner, Heritage: Heirloom, Season: Summer, Certification: Organic.
