Product Details
You'll be impressed with this high-yielding variety. These luscious tomatoes ripen to yellow-orange accented with hints of red that go through the solid, meaty interior of the fruit. Large, beefsteak type fruits don't have a lot of seeds but are filled with complex, low-acid tomato flavor with a hint of fruitiness that's just the right balance of sweet and tangy. Provide support for the tall plants and their heavy, 1–2-pound fruits.

- Paige L.Rated 4 out of 5 starsJun 24, 2026Great tomato but my seed packet is not Pineapple
This was last year’s seed packet. Whatever they are they are prolific, easy to germinate and taste great with some citrus. I imagine they were easier to grow than Pineapple (but I haven’t grown Pineapple before so I am not sure.). I would love to know what they are, because I would plant again. Although a seed mix up can be a real pain (I also had the Amethyst Jewel Eggplant mix up, but loved the white egg eggplant and will see if I can find it next year), it can lead to a variety a person really likes! The pick with the three tomatoes, the one referenced in on the left.
EGEpic GardeningJun 25, 2026Hey Paige,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! I'm so glad to hear that whatever variety you received turned out to be prolific, easy to grow, and delicious with those citrus notes. It sounds like you really made the most of the situation and discovered a new favorite!
I completely understand your curiosity about what variety you actually grew, and I apologize for the mix-up with both the tomato seeds and the Amethyst Jewel Eggplant. Seed mix-ups can definitely be frustrating when you're planning your garden around specific varieties. I've reached out to you via email so we can help identify what you received and make sure you get the correct Pineapple Pole Tomato seeds for this season.
Your positive attitude about discovering new varieties through these mix-ups is wonderful - that's the true spirit of gardening! Thank you again for your patience and for sharing your feedback with our gardening community. Keep on growing 🌻️
- Kelly J.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 starsSep 24, 2025Great seeds Wrong tomato
I don’t normally grow tomatoes from seeds but I wanted to experiment this year with some different types I don’t normally see. I’am usually a sun kiss cherry girl but I wanted to try some larger tomatoes. I don’t have a lot of space and only seed started four and all of them germinated!! However I only had the space to grow one to maturity.
Like some of the other reviews for 2025 it seems I got “golden jubilee” instead. I hadn’t even realized something was amiss until I saw the other reviews. As a review for golden jubilee I would give a five. Great germination, very prolific, with lovely large round yellow tomatoes. They had a mild flavor with a soft texture reminiscent of early girl tomatoes.
I’ve gotten wrong seeds from other companies, mix ups happen, at least I got a tomato I might’ve wanted to try down the line instead of a weed. I discovered I prefer acidic tomatoes which golden jubilee is not, so will unlikely get those seeds. Will however pick these seeds again to properly try pineapple tomatoes and some other more acidic varieties.

I am confused & disappointed. The seed packet shows beefsteak type tomatoes, yet these are tiny! I was really looking forward to trying the pineapple tomato.

Pineapple tomatoes are the best. Easy to grow and easy to support. I always have a great crop. My wife and I grow 20 to 30 tomato plants just for us. We pick at peak ripeness and then roast them in a large glass pan in the oven for a few hours until it has reduced to half or less. Fill up quart ziplocks and store flat in the freezer. Simply break off a chunk and you have an intense homegrown tomato flavor all year long.
