Tomato Jaune Flamme

This famous old French variety gives early crops of apricot-coloured, four ounce fruits the size of a golf ball or slightly larger, borne on elongated trusses that bear fruit continuously. It is a fabulous fresh-eating tomato with an explosive, intense flavour that shines through any salad dressing with ease. The outer walls are thick and meaty, with just enough juice to provide a full-bodied, citrus-like flavour that surprises all who try it for the first time. The yellow-orange skin encloses beautiful red-mottled flesh inside. This plant appears resistant to many diseases that normally plague tomatoes. The fruits are held in clusters of six to eight. And finally, it is the last plant still bearing ripe fruits in our unheated trial greenhouse, today is December 11th! Indeterminate (Cordon)
