(Lycopersicon lycopersicum) Identify. The Rutgers Tomato is a special tomato that produces bright red round fruit on hardy, disease-resistant vines. The strain was originally introduced by Rutgers University in 1934 for Campbell's Soup as a hybrid for commercial breeders.Since then, she has been selected for open pollination and developed as a modern commercial heirloom.

Rutgers tomatoes average 2 to 4 inches in diameter and weigh about 1 pound per fruit. Great for soups and jams, and a great slicer to eat raw.
