Tomato 'Trip-L-Crop'

Also known as "Italian Tree". "Trip-L-Crop" is a vigorous yielder of pink-red, solid, very meaty beefsteak tomatoes. Shoulders of tomat...Read Moreoes often stay tinged with green when ripe. The flavor is good/average; balanced and not overly acidic though nothing I'd personally write home about. What makes this plant stand out, though, is how meaty the fruit is - VERY little seeds/pulp. Makes killer bruschetta or salsa for this reason, as it's not watery at all. Never seen this plant grow to ridiculous size as some claim; grows no bigger than my other indeterminate types, but that could also be my climate (Northeastern US). It does put out a good amount of fruit, however, and seems to have decent disease resistance. If you're looking for a solid pink-red type of tomato that isn't stingy, you'll like this one.

We measured the tallest vine at 25 ft. I grew them in cages with no pruning and they only made 10-12 feet. The tomatoes were large and smooth. Sweet and just right for my taste but lovers of red tomatoes found them too bland. They grew well in Virginia, but were such an abject failure in Georgia that I ran out of seedstock before getting one to maturity.
