Details
The variety, a sport of the yellow cherry tomato 'Dr. Carolyn' found by Amy Goldman in 2002 and released to the Seed Savers Exchange (SSE) in 2007, boasts juicy flesh with thin skin and a flavor that intensifies as the season progresses. It showcases robust, bushy plants with widespread, abundant foliage, and indeterminate growth, ensuring abundant and regular yields from mid-season to frost. The tomato's name not only honors its developers but also shares its name with a well-known trout fly, reflecting its widespread recognition and appeal. This variety, sent by the late Dr. Carolyn Male, enriches gardens with its exceptional taste and storied history.
