Great yellow that grown good in northern IL.
by Scott
Great tasting yellow. Breaks down easily so not so good for cooking sauce, but fantastic sliced and placed on a sandwich. For everyone looking for a full tomatoe flavour with less acidity
Big on Size, Big on Flavor
by Michael
I've grown yellow tomatoes before that are pretty tasteless. These yellows were BIG on flavor and size! Didn't have any exotic manure - just cow, but they didn't seem to mind.
