Description

Solanum lycopersicum

The earliest-ripening tomato available—crazy prolific, great for containers!
DETERMINATE. Trials done by multiple seed companies have this University of Idaho-bred variety coming in first place for earliest-ripening tomato! Scrawny plants spit out more fruits than seems possible…what they lack in leaves they make up for in bright, mellow-flavored 2” fruits! Excellent for short-season areas, and for gardening in containers.

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. And of course, they made it all the way to our little corner of the earth too!

Special Overstock Opportunity! We have a batch of Idagold Tomato seed that received 74% germination in our germination test. This is a mere 1% below federal standards. We've priced it low because we want this seed to find its new home in your garden.

Determinate. Open-pollinated.

Seeds grown by Affinity Farm in Moscow, Idaho.

30 seeds.

Directions: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost and transplant out after. Bury past first set of leaves, add eggshells to soil for calcium, and provide support.
