Gold Medal

Open Pollinated. 90 days. Indeterminate. Abundant producers of very large, meaty, 1lb+ fruits. Sunset orange with red marbling, amazing to look at when sliced. First introduced in 1921 as Ruby Gold in John Lewis ChildÍs (credited with founding one of, if not the first seed catalog business in the United States) catalog it was later renamed Gold Medal by Ben Quisenberry in his 1976 catalog. The flavor is outstanding, somewhat fruity. Great for sandwiches, burgers, eating like an apple... .
