Description
Solanum lycopersicum
Rare variety and farm favorite! Hands down the best tasting cherry we grow!
Kristi Appelhans shared this variety she's been growing since the early 90s. In our strain, pale yellow fruits vary from oval to round to pear-shaped, but all have the same incredible, complex, sweet and salty flavor that lingers on the tongue!
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.
Indeterminate. Open-pollinated.
Seeds grown by Rich Felton in Rawlins, Wyoming.
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.
