Igleheart Yellow Cherry Tomato

I've been growing this tomato for 4 years and it never ceases to amaze me how productive it is. I always have extra to share. The plants are huge when fully grown, which I wasn't expecting the first year I grew it! Big tomato cages are too small to contain the long vines! Once they've grown out of their cage I drape the vines over other cages so they don't sit on the ground. Planning on coming up with a better system this year.
Flavor is slightly sweeter and less acidic than the average tomato. A favorite of my toddlers! Easy to seed start. You won't be disappointed with this one!

I agree with the other reviewer - these are the easiest super-productive tomatoes to grow. They also grow easily from previous year's tomato seeds that fell to the ground, haha.

I've grown these in middle GA and now in NW florida. I'm trying the single stem method to keep them from growing out of control. They are the first tomatoes in our garden to produce fruit.

I was very happy with the way these came out. I thought they were going to be too large for a cherry, but it turns out they are the perfect cherry size. Smaller than the black/white cherry varieties. Excellent snacking tomato and I included it in my Caprese. I think this is my new favorite cherry tomato. I grew it as a single stem and was picking by Mid July. Zone 6.

amazing! They grew soooooo tall!! The tomatoes that grow are the best tasting tomatoes i have ever had. They grew so tall i ended up using netting stapled to the top of my house so that it had support to grow. I will keep growing these beautiful tasty tomatoes.

Zone 5b IL. This variety produced a lot of small yellow fruits, much smaller than your typical cherry tomato. They did not have much flavor when fresh, and became very bitter when roasted. I will not be planting this again.

The tomatoes were reasonably abundant + quite juicy, distinctly tomato-ey flavored, but **VERY** small and perhaps more savory than sweet. (Several friends + neighbors grew them, too—and everyone had similar results, fruits almost as petite as currant tomatoes.) Caveat: They seem very tart at first... but here's what we finally figured out: Let them ripen (on or off the vine) until they're almost **orange.** (The "yellow" part of the name could trick you into eating them too soon!)

These are super productive (had a hard time keeping up!) and tasted delicious. Sweeter than the usual tomatoes, these produced well into September for me. As someone who has a hard time eating tomatoes (just not my favorite Veggie), I found myself eating these off the branch. Also sauteed well. Neighbor kids even "stole" some off the plant :)

Plan on planting again next season.

Zone: 6b
Garden: Raised Beds

IA 5A. Agree with other reviews -- very productive. Good yellow tomato flavor, not particularly special. One negative: does turn into a monster, sprawling plant -- even regular attempts at pruning didn't keep it controlled. It can take easily over other tomato cages planted nearby. One other downside is I found the fruit very easy to damage when picking. But there are so many of them, you can just snack on those.

These are a fantastic cherry tomato to add to your garden. We sell some of our veggies to our neighbors, and she said this variety was a gold star. We trellis our tomatoes, so this worked great in picking/growing. Favorite part of this variety is very little, if none, of the tomatoes fall to the ground. If left on too long, they will start their rotting on the vine, not on the ground. So, this makes a winner of clean up in the fall! Highly recommend!

Yes, grow it

I bought a packet of seeds, planted them in my greenhouse, not one seed cane up! All the other seeds I planted have come up except these seeds! Do you sell the plants? If so where can they be purchased!

Seed Savers Response: We are sorry to hear that your seeds didn't germinate as expected. We do have all our seeds germination tested to try and prevent this from happening. Please reach out to our customer service team so that we can get this situation corrected. Also, we did not offer transplants this year so these are not available from us in that form.

I highly recommend this one. I had mounds of cherry tomatoes from just 6 plants that I grew easily from seed under lights in my husband's shed. I love the way they stay put on the plant until I am ready to harvest them. I live in zone 7a and had tomatoes well into October . The variety I grew last year fell off and had a mushy texture. These are sweet and delicious. Great sauteed with garlic over pasta as well as fresh.

I grew these in middle/north GA. They are the best tasting cherry tomatoes I've ever grown, and it goes without saying, better than anything in the store.

Very pretty, short and sprawling plant with bunches full of tiny, golden tomatoes. Very sweet. They have a tendency to split when you pick them, so you end up with a lot to enjoy immediately while harvesting.

We grew these in zone 9b and got lots of lush foliage but barely any fruit. I guess it's just too hot here for this variety.
