Tomato – White Beauty – Eden Seeds

Tomato – White Beauty

White Beauty is a pale, creamy-white beefsteak-type tomato with similarly light flesh. The sweet flavour makes it useful for fresh slices and colourful mixed salads. Support the plant and judge ripeness by slight softening.

Growing in the Yarra Valley

Start seed in a warm, bright place under cover in spring. Plant outdoors after the risk of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Harden seedlings off gradually before planting into a sunny position with fertile, well-drained soil.

• Sowing depth: approximately 5mm.
• Spacing: generally 40–60cm between plants; allow extra room for vigorous varieties and good airflow.
• Care: keep moisture steady, water at soil level and mulch once the soil is warm. Support plants as required.

Harvest: check regularly and pick as fruit reaches its ripe colour and yields slightly to gentle pressure. Harvest timing varies with the variety, weather and planting date.

Everyday price: $5.25 per packet.
Mix & match Eden Seeds + Select Organic: 4–9 packets $4.95 each; 10+ packets $4.50 each.
