\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Earl of Edgecombe is an indeterminate<\/strong>, mid-season historic heirloom variety producing firm, bright orange and yellow fruits. Tomatoes usually run 3.5-10.5 oz (100-300 g) and have a distinctive barrel or globe shape. Growers praise its incredibly sturdy vines, strong trusses that don’t kink, and excellent storage life. The flavor reviews are slightly mixed: greenhouse growers found it exceptionally sweet, juicy, and meaty, while one outdoor grower found the taste a bit grassy. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Indeterminate mid-season variety. Grew this one outdoors in the dirt. Yield was about average. Fruits are yellow, weighing right around 7 oz (200 g), firm, and they store really well. Flavor was a bit grassy for my taste.<\/p>\n

Grew Earl of Edgecombe in the greenhouse. The vines stayed relatively compact at about 4.3 feet (1.3 m), mid-late season. Fruits were orange, medium-sized, kinda barrel-shaped. Super tasty, juicy and meaty at the same time, and really sweet.<\/p>\n

I’ve been growing Earl of Edgecombe for three years now. I absolutely love the plant itself. It’s super sturdy with big dark green leaves, and throws strong trusses loaded with clusters of fruit. The tomatoes are perfectly uniform, gorgeous, and just high quality overall, plus the stems on the trusses don’t kink under the weight. They run about 3.5-10.5 oz (100-300 g). Good flavor, everyone in my family loves these.<\/p>\n
