German Yellow Stripe
78 days, indeterminate — This old family heirloom tomato is a large (weighing up to forty ounces), bi-colored (yellow marbled with red), beefsteak-type fruit. Along with being an attractive fruit, 'German Yellow Stripe' tomatoes are juicy, sweet, mild and offer nice, complex aftertastes.
These seeds were sent to us by seed saver Bob Belins of Winchester, Kentucky in 2005. He said, "These seeds were given to me from the local barber, age 72, from the Hazard, Kentucky area. They were given to him many years prior having originated from the mountains of Kentucky." Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.

★★★★★ A Wonderful Tomato

It's not easy to find a huge heirloom tomato that ripens reliably for us at our elevation (1100 feet), but this one delivers. Between the gorgeous yellow, orange and red marbled interior, meaty flesh, and full flavor this tomato is one of my top five favorites. We ate these on sandwiches, sliced with olive oil, salt & pepper, in salads, & cooked. The slices dry beautifully. We had several fruits between 1.5 and 2 lbs. Definitely a keeper.
