Tomato Granny Cantrell German Red

(Solanum lycopersicum). This meaty, beefsteak-type tomato is named for Lettie Cantrell, who received seeds from a soldier returning from Germany during World War II. She grew this tomato in the hills of eastern Kentucky for many years. It was her favorite tomato and the only one she grew. Each year she saved seeds from the largest tomatoes, some of which reached 2 1/2 pounds. Our growers find it to be quite productive.
