Details
These captivating tomatoes, with their rich tangerine color, offer a unique appearance characterized by lime-green shoulders and fine green striping on unripe fruits, transforming into a brilliant yellow as they mature. These slightly oblong, golf-ball-sized tomatoes, each measuring about 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter, are not only a feast for the eyes but also perfect for salads or snacking due to their firm, meaty flesh. They emerged as a standout in our 2018 trials, noted for their luscious flavor profile which includes sweet, tropical, fruity notes reminiscent of papaya.
