Neves Azorean Red Beefsteak Heirloom Indeterminate Tomato Vegetable Seeds
Solanum lycopersicum
Listing is for 1 packet of 15 seeds
This rare heirloom was brought by a family that immigrated from the Azores to the United States. Fruits are consistently large beefsteaks, averaging 1-2 lbs. The outer skin is a bright scarlet red and can have orange streaks on the shoulders. Neves Azorean Red is one of the parents of one of my top 3 top producing tomatoes - Texwine. Neves Azorean Red has bold tomato flavor, making a great choice eaten raw in salads, sandwiches, and salsas.

Seeds are shipped in bubble mailers so they will not be pushed through USPS roller machines which can damage the seeds. I will not ship seeds in an envelope for this reason.
Seeds will be shipped with no planting instructions to keep seed costs low to the buyer. Germination and plant care information is included in the description. I encourage each gardener to research specifics on how to be successful growing them. I also have lots of information on my TikTok, Instagram and YouTube channel all under the account name jerrasgarden. I started this shop to share my love of certain seed varieties and spread the knowledge of gardening. Please contact me if you can't find information or have additional questions.
Orders with live plants are packed on Mondays and Thursdays (excluding holidays or delays because of natural disasters. Plants are shipped in boxes with packaging material to protect them while they are in transit.
No returns or refunds once shipped. I am not responsible for lost or damaged packages caused by USPS. Since there are so many factors that affect germination and growing success, no refunds or exchanges are allowed once seeds have shipped. These are the same seeds I use in my personal garden so I can attest to their viability. Seeds are fresh season to season.
