Solanum lycopersicum
Winner of numerous tomato tasting contests—see for yourself why!
INDETERMINATE. This ridiculously sweet & yummy tomato presents the world with bright yellow, 3” round fruits with thick walls and skin, light on the juice. In addition to being a perfect afternoon snack right off the vine, it’s wonderful for stuffing and salsas, and to add sweetness to marinaras. A worthy beauty queen, she wins on her combo of good looks, tenacity, and flavor! Indeterminate but tidy. Fruits keep for a long time after harvest.
Tomatoes are native to northwestern South America and by at least 500 BC they had been domesticated and were being cultivated as far north as modern-day Mexico, enjoyed by Aztec and other civilizations. They spread to Europe and the Caribbean through the Spanish colonizers, where they became staple parts of the food culture in many European countries as well.
