The Great White Beefsteak tomato is often reported by other seed sellers as being an American heirloom tomato variety with a history that traces back to the era of the American Civil War during the 1860's, however, in truth, this wonderful white tomato variety is actually of a much more recent origin. 

This lovely tomato was originally offered by Gleckler Seeds Co. in the early 90's. Gleckler's customers often sent seeds from their own garden that they were proud of and hoped that the company would later introduce to the public. In 1987 or 1988, a woman sent Gleckler seeds of an orange and yellow Oxheart tomatoes from her garden for them to try. Gleckler grew them out and amongst the plants was one that proved to be a white beefsteak, which as it turns out, the woman did not have in her garden, so it was assumed that the plant was the result of a natural mutation. Gleckler began to cultivate this new white beefsteak tomato and a number of years later released it under the name of "Great White Beefsteak". It has become popular in the years since. (Where the erroneous story that the variety was a Civil War era heirloom originated, is unknown.) 

Great White is typically considered the finest and the largest of the white tomato varieties, producing huge creamy white tomatoes that can often weigh up to two pounds, making it larger than White Beauty / White Snowball. When ripe, these creamy colored tomatoes typically have a yellowish hue on the blossom end. The tomatoes feature a mild, sweet flavor and have alot of juice, yet few seeds. The plants of Great White are extremely productive and also extremely hardy, featuring a great amount of foliage to protect against sun scald. Great White is an excellent tomato variety for hot climates in that it is not only drought resistant, but also crack resistant. Indeterminate. Matures in approximately 85 days. 

White Wonder is believed by some to bear a close relation to another white tomato variety which was being grown back in the 1860's under the name of  the White Apple Tomato here in the United States. Beyond the theory of this relation, very little is actually known about the history of the White Wonder Tomato, except for the fact that the variety has been grown for some time and is among the most popular of the white tomato varieties.

The White Wonder Tomato is an excellent producer of very mild tasting, creamy white colored tomatoes in the range 5 to 6 ounces. The white color is seen inside and out, giving the White Wonder Tomato an ivory white colored flesh. Excellent for slicing or canning! Indeterminate. Matures in about 85 days.

The White Beauty Tomato, also known as the White Snowbal Tomatol, is a rare heirloom tomato that was said to have been introduced between 1850 to 1863. Over 40 years ago, this lovely white tomato variety disappeared and has only recently been rediscovered in seed banks. 

This wonderful rarity is an extremely prolific producer of creamy white, round tomatoes up to 1 1/2 pounds each, but typically running about 8 to 10 ounces in size. The tomatoes are very meaty, have few seeds and feature an extremely mild and very sweet taste. Due to their high natural sugar content, they have a low acid taste. 

The tomatoes are a creamy white, inside and out. In the past, White Beauty/Snowball was typically used to make the tomato preserves that were so popular in decades past, but it also excels as a slicer. These tomatoes are best harvested when they are white to creamy colored throughout. When the tomatoes are of a pale green to white, they could be considered under ripe, where as when they are more of a whitish yellow, they are becoming over ripe. 

Indeterminate. Matures in approximately 80 to 85 days.

Simply wonderful and very rare! 

Livingston's White Queen Tomato was introduced in 1882 by the famous A.W. Livingston Seed Company. Alexander Livingston could be considered the grandfather of the tomato in North America and his breeding work contributed great strides in the establishment of the tomato as a crop in the United States. White Queen was the only white tomato variety that Livingston ever introduced and it is certainly a real gem! Being that White Queen is much less known than Livingston's other tomato introductions, it is rarely mentioned among his main list of developments.

Livingston's White Queen produces a great abundance of 6 to 8 ounce, beefsteak type tomatoes that are smooth save slightly ribbed shoulders which give the variety a true old fashioned look and one of the nicest shapes of all white tomatoes. Unlike many other white varieties, Livingston's White Queen is typically remarkably free of blemishes such as cracks or catfacing that disfigure many other varieties. 

This lovely variety ripens to a creamy white color throughout (a few may have a pinkish blush on the blossom end). The tomatoes are very sweet and very juicy and possess a very nice, balanced flavor. Good for slicing, salads and juicing.

This very old, very productive variety is now becoming rare.

Indeterminate. Matures in 80 to 85 days.

The Cream Sausage Tomato is another very new white variety that was released only in the last few years and still remains very rare. It is likely that its history is much the same as the variety Greehn Sausage in that little is actually known about its origin save the fact that it was first known in Western Europe.

Cream Sausage is a stunning and wonderful white paste tomato variety. It is the only white tomato of its type, in that it produces elongated tomatoes with pointed ends very similiar to San Marzano, but unlike the aforementioned famous Italian Paste tomato, Cream Sausage is a very pale, creamy white color! Cream Sausage is a very sweet, flavorful variety and can be used to make a most wonderful, cream colored tomato sauce.

Determinate. Matures in 70 to 80 days.

Recommended for market growers and the gardener who likes the very unusual!

Being a new introduction, Cream Sausage is VERY RARE!
