Details
Sweet Gold stands out among cherry tomatoes, celebrated not just for its vibrant golden yellow fruits but also for its full, sweet tomato flavor. These glossy 1-inch cherries, delicious when eaten directly from the vine, are perfect for snacks, summer salads, and stir-fries, offering a blend of aesthetic appeal and taste. This variety is a very early, indeterminate yellow cherry tomato that is both high-yielding and vigorous, producing both single and double clusters of small fruits that are darker orange.
