Description
Amana Orange is a one of the tastiest and earliest of the heirloom beefsteaks. Deep orange color and rich beefsteak flavor make this a favorite for slicing.
Start seeds indoors six to eight weeks before the last spring frost, and transplant in late spring after nights have warmed. Sow outdoors in climates with 120 or more frost-free days. Germinates best at 75 degrees F. Plant in sunny spot. Feed every two weeks with high phosphorous fertilizer. Indeterminate. Ripen on the vine for best flavor. Vigorous 4-6′ vines require tall, sturdy stakes or trellises.
