- Green Zebra (indeterminate) tomatoes, bred by Tom Wagner in the 1980s, are unique heirlooms known for their ripe green color with yellow stripes. Unlike typical green tomatoes, which are often discarded, these firm, crack-resistant fruits are flavorful and early-maturing. Their unusual appearance also helps deter pests, making them a popular choice in modern gardening
- Tasting note: Tangy & fruity
- Red Brandywine (indeterminate) tomatoes, named after Brandywine Creek in Pennsylvania, are beloved heirlooms with a rich history dating back to the late 1800s. Their origins are unclear, with ties to Ohio and possible Amish roots. These vigorous indeterminate plants produce large, lobed, beefsteak-shaped fruits that are thin-skinned and pinkish-red. Renowned for their exceptional flavour and low acidity, Red Brandywines are among the most popular heirloom tomatoes, perfect for slicing and enjoying fresh.
- Tasting note: Meaty & sweet
- Black Krim (indeterminate) tomatoes are native to Russia and named for their dark-purple colouring. "Krim" is the Ukrainian word for Crimea, the Ukrainian region where the Black Krim was cultivated
- Tasting note: Smokey, salty & meaty

About Sow Delicious
In 2013, Vanessa Jacobs set out to find the simplest way to grow a garden fit for a foodie, giving people the opportunity to proudly plant a garden that is Sow Delicious! She came up with the idea for the ‘Slab of Seed’ which might look like a slab of chocolate, but is made from a special blend of organically enriched super-soil and infused with rare heirloom seed – the purest & oldest seed on earth which is also non-GMO. The slabs are handmade in a unique little chocolate factory in the heart of Eden in The Garden Route.
