Tomato 'OTV Brandywine'

This plant gets great reviews around the internet, so I gave it at try. Unfortunately, it got very overcrowded in my yard and didn't per...Read Moreform well from lack of room and sunlight. I only got one tomato off of the plant, but it tasted good.

On later attempts it doesn't survive long enough to make any fruit...will keep trying. Maybe it hates the high heat in my area?

In 2010, this tomato produced well for me late in the season. I obtained a moderate crop of large sized beautiful red tomatoes. Tasters i...Read Moren my household and at work preferred this tomato over black krim, cherokee purple, Amana Orange, Perssimon, and black. I found it a good balance between sweet and acidic with favorable texture. The only tomato in my garden that rivaled its palatability was the pink Brandywine, which taste and texture was slightly better in my opinion. However, I only obtained two tomatoes from the pink brandywine and i got 6-8 tomatoes/per plant fromt the OTV.

As others have noted, I did have some slight problems with disease where I had yellowing leaves (wilt?). Despite the wilt it was a good producer.

A fairly decent cropper for me. Great taste -- complex w/good sugar/acid balance.

Nice flavor, great texture. Not as prolific as other varieties I grew this year.
