10+ Organically Grown Seeds — Dwarf Howard’s Railroad
A compact reimagining of a classic heirloom, Dwarf Howard’s Railroad was developed through the Dwarf Tomato Project to deliver the rich, old-fashioned flavor of Howard’s German Railroad on a manageable plant. This dwarf, indeterminate variety features rugose, regular foliage and typically reaches 3–4 feet tall, making it ideal for smaller gardens, raised beds, and containers.
Despite its compact stature, this variety produces large, beefsteak-style tomatoes, often in the 10–16 oz range, with a traditional flattened shape and gentle ribbing. The flesh is dense, meaty, and full of classic tomato character—bold, savory, and well balanced with a lingering sweetness that makes it perfect for slicing and sandwiches.
Productive and reliable, Dwarf Howard’s Railroad proves that you don’t need towering vines to grow truly outstanding heirloom tomatoes.
