Heirloom tomatoes are open-pollinated varieties, meaning their seeds produce offspring identical to the parent plant, unlike hybrid tomatoes. They are typically known for their diverse colors, shapes, sizes, and flavors, which often differ significantly from the more uniform commercial varieties. Many heirloom varieties have been passed down through generations of growers for at least 50 years, or were introduced commercially before 1940.
