The Great White Tomato is a unique and stunning heirloom variety known for its large size and pale, creamy white color. The tomatoes typically weigh 1–2 pounds, with a smooth, round shape and a light yellowish-white hue. The flesh is dense and meaty, with a mild, sweet flavor that lacks the acidity of red tomatoes, making it perfect for slicing, sandwiches, or fresh salads.

85 days from transplant Indeterminate plants grow to 6–8 feet tall, producing a consistent yield of these large, flavorful tomatoes throughout the growing season. These plants thrive in full sun and need regular watering to maintain the best flavor and texture. Due to the size of the fruit, staking or caging is essential to support the heavy yield.

The Great White tomato was introduced to the public in the early 1990s. In 1987, a woman sent a collection of orange and yellow Oxheart tomato seeds from her home garden to Gleckler Seeds Company for trial purposes. Gleckler grew the seeds, and one plant unexpectedly came to produce a white beefsteak tomato, most likely the result of a genetic mutation. After a few years of cultivation, Gleckler Seeds offered this variety for sale under the name “Great White Beefsteak,” and it has become popular in the years since.
