ROSALIE'S BIG ROSY. Family Heirloom (USA, Maryland). A unique old tomato variety that farming families in Maryland have cultivated and carefully preserved for more than 200 years. It is a true treasure, tested by time and generations, combining high productivity, excellent flavor, and an impressive fruit appearance. The plant is mid-season, indeterminate, vigorous, reaching a height of 170 cm or more, requiring staking and pruning.
The variety is distinguished by a stable and long-lasting harvest throughout the season. Fruits are very large, meaty, dark pink, mostly heart-shaped or rounded-heart without a pointed tip. Average fruit weight is 300-800 g, with some reaching up to 1.3 kg, making it a true giant among tomatoes. The flesh is tender, juicy, with a classic heirloom tomato aroma and a rich, sweet flavor that harmoniously balances sweetness and mild acidity.
Its use is universal: excellent for fresh eating, as well as for salads, cooked dishes, sauces, and natural juices. Thanks to its large size and rich flavor profile, it is highly valued at farmers’ markets and in private gardens as a premium table tomato. This is a true family heirloom that has stood the test of two centuries. Its history and outstanding taste qualities make it worthy of a place both in modern gardens and in the collections of true heirloom enthusiasts.
