Thai Pink Egg Heirloom Tomato | Heat-Tolerant, High-Yield Variety
Solanum lycopersicum
Listing is for 1 packet of 15 seeds
The Thai Pink Egg heirloom tomato is a beautiful, productive variety from Thailand, prized for its glossy pink, egg-shaped fruits and sweet, mild flavor. These tomatoes grow to about 2 ounces each — perfect for fresh eating, salads, and light cooking. The fruits hold well after picking and resist cracking, even in humid climates, making them a reliable choice for home gardeners. Plants are vigorous and indeterminate, producing generous clusters all season long. Gardeners love Thai Pink Egg for its combination of beauty, flavor, and toughness — it thrives in heat and humidity where other tomatoes struggle. For best results, start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost date, transplant into full sun, and provide sturdy support as the vines can reach 5–6 feet tall. With its delicate pink color, crack resistance, and consistent yield, this tomato brings both elegance and dependability to the garden.

Common Diseases: Tomatoes catch a ton of common leaf diseases caused by various pathogens that die when treated with hydrogen peroxide. If you notice powdery mildew, yellow spots, or black lesions on the stems, spray with 1 cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water to clean and disinfect. Repeat every 3 to 5 days until you notice the spread has stopped. If a lot of rain is expected, pre-treatment will help to prevent diseases. For severe leaf diseases use a stronger treatment like Monteray Disease Control.
Common Pests: The most common pest when growing tomatoes are aphids, mealy bugs, spider mites, and worms (like the tomato horn worm or army worms). All of these can be treated with spinosad.
