Sungold Cherry Tomato
Sungold Cherry Tomato, Solanum lycopersicum 'Sungold', is a golden cherry tomato that is very productive offering its fruits very early in the season. 'Sungold' fruits are light orange colored, thin-skinned and very sweet. Not quite gold and not quite red but when orange, the flavour is outstanding! Rich and fruity tomatoes in long trusses on vigorous indeterminate vines keep on producing all summer. A must for garden snacks with a taste that can’t be beat. Tomatoes should be planted outside after the last average frost date. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Tomatoes prefer well drained soil that is high in organic matter. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. If you are growing tomatoes in a pot, use plastic because it prevents evaporation and afternoon wilts.
