White Queen Tomato seeds now available at www.trueloveseeds.com! White Queen Tomato was one of the top five most delicious tasting tomatoes from the 25 we trialed last year. It is said to be the tastiest of the “white” tomatoes, is super vigorous, and very productive. Actually a creamy, off-white color, when truly ripe, many of the fruits have a gorgeous pink blush on their blossom end. Dr. Carolyn Male, tomato enthusiast, offered seeds for this variety in the Seed Savers Exchange Yearbook in 1995, and had gotten them from fellow enthusiast Craig Lehoullier. He had received them from the USDA’s tomato collection. There is a simple note on the accession page for this tomato (PI 645048) in the USDA’s GRIN database: “Earl May Seed Co. 1941 Catalog”. This seed company was started by its namesake in Shenandoah, Iowa in 1919. Where they got the tomato, we are not sure! But we know it’s fantastic. We also know that tomatoes have a history much deeper than Iowa: they are so named from the Nahuatl (Aztec language) word “xitomatl” or “tomatl”; they have been cultivated as food on the land that is now called Mexico since at least around 500 BC; and they originate in western South America. #trueloveseeds #seedkeeping #whitequeen #whitequeentomato #solanumlycopersicum #heirloomtomatoes #tomatobutt https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUfGHZlFVV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7fmwnlys9dji
