Thorburn’s Terra-Cotta Tomato
Latin Name:
Solanum lycopersicum Thorburn's Terra-CottaTerra-Cotta is great as a slicer or cooker. It is also a looker: copper brown skin, pink flesh, and shimmering green innards. This beautiful heirloom was first introduced in 1893 in full color on the cover of the J.M. Thorburn & Company seed catalog in New York. This variety was revived by William Woys Weaver after he received seed from a lecture attendee in South Jersey in the early 1990s.
Incredible flavor, color and history! Introduced in 1893 by James Thorburn of New York. With honey-brown skin, orange-pink flesh, and green seed mass, this is an eye-catching slicer with an out-of-this-world flavor. The tomato produces heavily during mid-season and then drops off quickly once cool weather sets in.
