Overview

Stump of the World is a beefsteak heirloom with potato-leaf foliage and dark pink fruit that reaches about a pound. Vines are indeterminate and keep producing through the season, so give them sturdy caging or staking early, because a heavy fruit load on this variety can pull supports over. Start seed indoors about 8 weeks before the last frost and set plants into a fertile, freely draining bed in full sun. The large, meaty pink fruit is at its best sliced fresh.
