This heirloom has been grown since the Civil War by Grandpa Barnes, who grew it as an ornamental, believing (as many people did at the time) that tomatoes or "love apples" were poisonous. Big, pink beefsteak-type fruits are slightly sweet with a juicy, meaty texture. Potato leaved plants are heavy yielders.
