Tomato – Black Beauty – Heirloom Seeds

Black Beauty tomatoes are indeterminate heirloom tomatoes, meaning they continue producing fruits until the arrival of colder climates in the fall.

The Black Beauty is an abundant beefsteak variety and the world’s darkest tomato with their trademark black (deep purple) flesh. This is caused by anthocyanin, the same antioxidant found in blackberries and blueberries.

Ripening Season

The Black Beauty is a mid to late season intermediate tomato, which means its fruits can ripen and mature at various times rather than all at once. They typically begin ripening from late spring to early summer and can ripen as far as the early months of fall.

Tomato qualities:

While the flesh of these tomatoes can be a deep purple to black shade, the insides are red with a moderate number of seeds. Black Beauties have firm dark flesh, a meaty texture, and are very juicy similar to other beefsteak varieties.
