(Variety ‘Pio.’) 70 days. An all around timeless classic! Originally introduced in 1995 to compete with 'Park’s Whopper' and 'Burpee’s Big Boy.' The original 'Goliath,' a European sister to 'Big Beef,' which had won AAS honors just a year earlier, was a magnificent, blemish-free, bright red fruit weighing 10 to 15 oz. Flavor was superb: the perfect balance of acids and sugars to give it that old-timey, real-tomato taste. For productivity combined with great taste and disease resistance, the 'Goliath Original' is one of the greatest home-garden varieties yet bred. Indeterminate.
