Cherry tomato 'Minigold'
- Product number: 291447
- Origin: Central America
- Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, also known as L. esculentum
Ideal small tomato for growing in containers and pots. This can be done from 3 litres, but 10 litres is better... The plants grow to a height of 80-120 cm and produce an early and abundant harvest of yellow cherry tomatoes. The taste is a good harmony between sweet and sour, delicious for salads, on bread, in dishes. If the plant flowers less, it helps to prune it significantly; the rejuvenated plant will start producing again!
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 named accordingly. Some are even original, wild species. Most taste extra sweet, while a few have a sweet and sour taste. Cherry tomatoes are closest to the original species, which may be why they are generally more resistant to the dreaded potato blight.
