Grow your own Mortgage Lifter tomato seeds with Mr Fothergill’s. These tomato seeds grow a large, very meaty, flavoursome fruit of up to 400g each. Rich, firm, red, and perfect for sauces, this variety is a fabulous all-rounder.   And with high yields of up to 16kg per plant, Mortgage Lifter requires staking for best results.

First grown as a hybrid of Italian, German, and English beefsteak tomatoes, Mortgage Lifter is an heirloom seed variety that dates back to the golden days of gardening. It was named by a 1930s farmer whose bumper crop of this variety helped him save his farm from repossession.
