\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Landshuter Riese is an indeterminate<\/strong> German heirloom that produces massive, incredibly tender pink oxhearts. Originally from Lower Bavaria and popularized by legendary seed collector Reinhard Kraft, this tall vine is praised for its long harvest window, excellent disease resistance, and nearly seedless, sweet flesh. While it can be a bit slow to start, it is a heavy yielder both in the greenhouse and outdoors. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Highly productive, tall indet vine with a long harvest window. Massive, uniform, incredibly tender, delicious, meaty pink hearts. They have a gorgeous shape and are practically seedless. Landshut is an old city in Lower Bavaria, which is where the variety gets its name.<\/p>\n

I got this variety through a seed trade with Reinhard Kraft from Germany.<\/p>\n

This tomato took a little while to get going, but it ended up setting fruit really well. Loaded with large and medium-sized, tender pink hearts. Considering the kind of summer we had, it did great in the greenhouse.<\/p>\n

Just want to add that this variety performed exceptionally well outdoors in the dirt too. The tomatoes on the trusses were just as massive, and the plant didn’t catch a single disease.<\/p>\n
