Growing Legend Lb Tomato

Legend Tomato Seeds give gardeners a real chance at beautiful, ripe tomatoes even where late blight is a recurring problem. Bred at Oregon State University, this open-pollinated variety was developed specifically to combine extra-early maturity with tolerance to late blight, making it an excellent choice for the Northwest, New England, and other cool, wet regions. Plants produce big, glossy red fruits that are uniformly round, smooth, and firm, with a classic, rich tomato flavor ideal for slicing onto sandwiches, burgers, and salads.

Maturing in about 68 days, Legend is one of the earliest slicing tomatoes in the garden. The determinate plants stay compact yet productive, reaching about 48 inches tall and setting generous clusters of 8-ounce fruits over a focused harvest window. Strong foliage helps protect the fruits as they ripen, while the variety’s late blight tolerance gives gardeners added confidence when conditions turn damp and disease pressure rises.

For gardeners who have struggled with disease in the past or who simply want an early, reliable red slicer, Legend Tomato Seeds offer a standout combination of flavor, earliness, and resilience. It’s a smart choice for raised beds, small gardens, and any cool-climate plot where a dependable tomato is a must.

High yields

One of my favorites. Blight resistant is a bonus. I’ve had plants with 30 ripening at same time. Nice 4” average size. Flavor is a must for me and this variety is not disappointing sliced on a hamburger.

Excellent determinate

Our favorite, and best producer this year. We had this in two different locations, 2 raised bed plants with early sun and afternoon shade, with two in 10 gallon bags with late sun. The raised bed locations performed best, but the 2 in containers still produced well. Almost 2 months after the main harvest they are putting out as many tomatoes as our indeterminates.

Locally, some experienced gardeners gave up on tomatoes entirely this year. Daily rain from June 1-10 totaled 7-8 inches. Blight was a constant. The Legends needed pruning, but their resilience is what kept me from giving up. We had aphids early in the summer, and had to stay on top of that, but by the middle of July they became a non-issue. Other pests didn’t phase the Legends.

Flavor is excellent, real tomato taste. A couple of our heirlooms were a tad tastier, but they were more trouble and haven’t produce nearly as well.

Great slicer, good for canning. Needs to be boiled down more than paste types. VERY easy to work with. The fruit is round, smooth and resists cracking better than every other tomato we grew.

We will be planting more of these next year.

Context: Our location is central Arkansas, on a bit of cleared land in a forest. We have to find sun where we can. Zone 7b. We get a lot of rain early. And sometimes late. With heavy disease and pest pressures, our year to year challenges vary. Organic. We grew over 100 plants (32 varieties) this year and learned a lot. If you read this far, have a nice day.
