Cherry tomato 'Cerise Gelb'

  • Product number: 291180
  • Origin: Central and South America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, also known as L. esculentum

Delicious and remarkably resistant to potato blight! The slightly oval, yellow fruits ripen early on wide trusses with 8-20 fruits. Outdoor cultivation works very well most years; in the greenhouse, 2-3 main stems can be grown. The height is 1.5-2 m (outdoors), so a support is desired. The taste? Juicy, fresh, sweet, and aromatic.

The smallest tomatoes in our assortment are called cherry tomatoes or ping-pong tomatoes, depending on their size. Some varieties are elongated or heart-shaped and are given a slightly different name accordingly. Some are even original, wild species. Most taste extra sweet; a few have a sweet-sour taste. Cherry tomatoes are closest to the original species, which is probably why they are generally more resistant to the dreaded potato blight.

Names:
Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, or also L. esculentum
