Livington’s Golden Queen

introduced in 1882 by pioneering seedsman Alexander W. Livingston of Columbus, Ohio. A.W. Livingston is best known for introducing a large number of tomatoes to the Great Lakes region around the turn of the 20th century. Vigorous plants produce round, medium sized (3½” diameter, 3 – 5 oz.) golden-yellow fruit with a red blush on the blossom end. Livingston himself quaintly referred to it as “a very pretty yellow tomato.”
