• German Striped Tomato Seeds


This beefsteak tomato plant produces beautiful yellow and red fruits up to 12 oz! These open pollinated tomato plants are indeterminate, so they will keep producing fruit until first frost as long as they are kept healthy and harvested regularly. We love to use these tomatoes fresh in salads and dinners.

Planting/Harvesting Notes

  • Transplant 3-4 ft apart in full sun once chance of frost has passed
  • Support with a strong stake as the large fruit will knock over traditional tomato cages
  • Matures in 85-90 days

Seed Saving

To save tomato seeds, slice the top off the ripe tomato and scoop out the seeds into a small container. Be sure to label the container with your variety. Once all seeds are in the container, fill the container with water so that the seeds are floating (approximately 1/4-1/2 cup water) and cover the container. Allow the container to sit in a cool, dark place for 3-5 days. It is ok if a moldy film develops on top. After 3-5 days, carefully remove the film and stir. Allow seeds to settle for 1-2 minutes. Any seeds that sink are viable. Carefully pour off any floating seeds and pulp and then strain the sunken seeds. Rinse the remaining gel off the seeds while they are in the strainer. Then spread the seed in a single layer on a drying screen, paper plate, etc. If saving multiple varieties, be sure to label all seeds. After all seeds are dry, store in a labeled paper envelope in a cool dry place.
