Tomato 'Pink brimmer'

Pink brimmer likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Pink brimmer is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Pink brimmer needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.5 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Look to ensure a distance 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 12°C / 54°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Pink brimmer about 42 days before your last frost date.

Plant to the first set of true leaves to promote strong root growth.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Pink brimmer is a tender plant.

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by late summer.

This old Virginia variety won Grand Prize for size and quality at the Jamestown Exposition held in 1907 at Sewell’s Point, VA, now the site of the Norfolk Naval Base.
