Bonny Best Tomato (aka. Bonnie Best Tomato, Bonny's Best Tomato, Bonner Best)
Origin: United States
Item #: TOM058

The Bonny Best Tomato, which is also known under the name Bonny's Best Tomato and Bonnie Best Tomato, was introduced to the public in 1908. Depending on which tomato history resources you prefer to trust, Bonny Best was either developed at the Bonny Plant Farm of Union Springs, Alabama or by a breeder in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

This old fashioned canning tomato variety is one of our favorites and is becoming harder and harder to find despite the fact that the variety was once carried by nearly every seed seller in the United States. With its rich, true tomato taste, and an even richer history, Bonny Best is one of the best tomatoes for your garden!

Stark, 1924, says that Bonny Best is an:

"intense flaming scarlet in color ... (The) flesh solid, meaty, slightly acid and of splendid table quality…one of the best main crop varieties…colors clear to the stem, does not crack, has few seeds, no green core and ripens easily; is borne in clusters of about three to five, is round, somewhat flattened, and smooth and attractive on the bush and in the crate.”

Burpee, writing in their 1926 annual says that Bonny Best is:

"A selection of Chalk's Early Jewel, maturing about a week earlier. The purplish-pink fruits are borne in clusters of 3 to 5. They are somewhat smaller than Chalk's Early Jewel, single fruits weighing 5 ounces each. They are smooth, solid, meaty, juicy, and in every way very uniform."

Briggs of Edmonton, Canada described it in 1929 as being:

"of compact growth, the plants are fairly loaded with fruit. The large handsome uniform fruits are very solid and deep, being almost round, have few seeds and are of fine sweet flavor. Color, bright scarlet, ripening right up to the stem without any cracks or green core; skin thin but sufficiently strong to make it a good shipper. It is a shade later than Earliana."

Buist of Philadelphia, notes in 1946, that "Bonnie Best" is:

"A standard early variety following Earliana in ripening. One of the best all purpose tomatoes valuable for the early market, home gardens and forcing under glass. Yields well all season. Vine medium growth. Fruit bright scarlet, medium size, quite round, smooth, solid and of excellent quality."

Indeterminate. Matures in 75 days.
