Solanum lycopersicum

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, including France. Norbert Perreira of Helliner, France is credited with introducing Jaune Flamme into the world, after which their circuitous journey brought them back to the Western hemisphere again, to find a beloved place in Intermountain West gardens!
