Tomato ~ John Baer

A classic American heirloom introduced in the early 1900s, John Baer is prized for its early maturity and dependable yields. Medium-sized, smooth fruits ripen to a vibrant red with tender, juicy flesh and a well-balanced, traditional tomato flavor—gently sweet with a pleasant acidity. Reliable and adaptable, this variety sets fruit well even in cooler conditions, making it especially well-suited to Canadian gardens. Indeterminate plants produce steadily through the season, offering a consistent supply for fresh eating, slicing, and light cooking. A trusted choice for gardeners seeking both earliness and classic taste. Early Heirloom Slicer. 60-70 days from transplant.
