Giant Belgium Heirloom Beefsteak Tomato
Growing Giant Belgium Heirloom Beefsteak Tomato
‘Giant Belgium’ is an heirloom beefsteak tomato prized for its enormous fruits and rich old-fashioned sweetness. Tomatoes commonly reach about 2 pounds and can grow considerably larger, with dense, meaty interiors and relatively few seeds.
Start ‘Giant Belgium’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 24 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. Vigorous indeterminate vines benefit from sturdy cages or stakes and consistent moisture and feeding.
Ready to harvest in about 86 days, pick fruits once they reach full size and mature color.
Sweet, meaty, and substantial, ‘Giant Belgium’ is excellent for slicing, sauces, canning, and other fresh or preserved uses.
