So far this is my favorite tomato! It is a very mellow tomato that my whole family loves. I start it very early inside to give it a long enough growing season. I also plant earlier, though not as tasty varieties to tide us over until it begins to produce. I've really not tasted the first tomato of the year until I pick the first 'Giant Belgium'.

A big golden tomato, widely available. It produces relatively well here and is a good tasting dark yellow tomato. Not a true beefsteak, as it has a slightly flattened round shape. Sometimes sold as Goldie, which creates confusion with a smaller patio yellow also called Goldie.

It is listed as Yellow Giant Belgium (Goldie), a more than 150 yrs. old heirloom. It does not bear a great quanity of fruit, but tastes wonderful and very large. Donna

Takes a long season and is not a heavy producer, but, with such large great tasting tomatoes, who cares? They are well worth the wait and one tomato makes a meal.
