Tomato De Barao Gold

Surprisingly heavy yields of 2-4 oz, egg-sized, plum-shaped, golden yellow tomatoes have very good sweet flavours, with strong, thick flesh and skin, so that they never split. Related to the popular Russian commercial variety, this is a golden strain of the popular De Barao tomato, a form of the "Zolotoy" or "Gold Reserve" tomato in Russian. It is therefore very productive in low temperatures, where this Russian favourite can make impressively tall 3 m plants, and is usually used for soups, salads, conserves and sauces. (Cordon)
