Simple announcement, I’ve now updated the list of tomato cultivars to include those I’ve grown in 2018. That brings to 161 the number listed. 2018 has been a somewhat peculiar year, the tomatoes are early because of the weather. Which is probably a good job because I didn’t do much in the way of thinning…… Continue reading 2018 Update

Tomato Vince
Yellow bell shaped open pollinated tomato on indeterminate plants. Description Vince has yellow, bell-pepper shaped tomatoes with a large cavity and seeds concentrated into a clump in the middle, very similar to Yellow Stuffer. The indeterminate, regular-leafed, plants produce bell-pepper shaped fruit, ideal for stuffing as they are strong walled and nearly empty of seeds.…… Continue reading Tomato Vince
Tomato Goldkrone
Dark Yellow/White Cherry on Indeterminate plants. Also known as Gold Crown. Description Grown for the first time in 2018 with seeds from a seed swap, we were interested to see how this grew and to compare it to other Yellow Cherry tomatoes such as our Oleron Yellow and Nikolayev Yellow Cherry. To be honest it…… Continue reading Tomato Goldkrone
Tomato Gazzi Yellow Egg
Medium Sized Yellow Plum Tomato. Description Grown for the first time in 2018 with seeds from a seed swap, we were interested to see how this grew.

Tomato Taiko
Small Yellow Plum shaped tomato on an Indeterminate vine. Description Grown for the first time in 2018 with seeds from a seed swap, we were interested to see how this grew. We probably didn’t give it a very good chance as (for some unknown reason) we didn’t bother to thin out the side shoots on…… Continue reading Tomato Taiko

Tomato Yellow Pigmy

Tomato Yellow Brandywine
Yellow beefsteak heritage tomato on indeterminate plants. Description Yellow Brandywine is a beefsteak tomato with possibly the best flavour of all the yellow tomatoes. In 2012 we also grew Azoychka as a yellow beefsteak. Azoychka was slightly more productive but Yellow Brandywine was slightly later so we had a long season of yellow beefsteak tomatoes.…… Continue reading Tomato Yellow Brandywine

It has lots of small sized yellow juicy and sweet tomatoes and is an ideal companion for Tiny Tim and…… Continue reading Tomato Tumbling Tom Yellow
Tomato Transparent
Yellow large cherry open pollinated tomato on indeterminate plants. Description One of many yellow, round tomatoes (very similar to Oleron Yellow, Snow White, etc.). However, the skin doesn’t add colour to the tomato being almost completely transparent (hence the name I suppose). The flavour is a little too mild for us (we prefer something with…… Continue reading Tomato Transparent
