Details

Orange King was bred at the University of New Hampshire and released in 1943. It was developed for northern areas, but also performs very well in hot, southern regions. A truly regal tomato! Orange King grows on compact, determinate plants and develops bold, tasty fruit. The 4-11 oz. lightly pleated fruit are vivid orange inside and out.
