Lycopersicon esculentum
Good yields of dark pink heart-shaped fruit that can grow up to 905g. A favorite of many gardeners dating back to 1925. An heirloom variety from Hungary. The Oxheart Pink has an excellent taste but these firm tomatoes have fewer seeds than the red variety. It is an excellent slicer tomato. One of the most productive Oxheart varieties.
Sow in a good mix of soil and lightly cover – keep moist but not wet. Transplant when seedlings achieve 4 – 6 leaves.
NOTE
Known as old-fashioned “Bullock Heart” if you’re in Queensland, or “Ox Heart” in NSW & the rest of Australia. Taken from a transmission on ABC gardening show South Queensland

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
