SEAN'S YELLOW DWARF. A relatively new variety developed between 2006 and 2013 as part of the Dwarf Project. It is a cross between 'Budai Torpe' and 'Cherokee Green', initiated by Patrina Nuske Small in 2006. Final selection in the F3 generation was carried out by Lee Newman. Public release took place in 2014. Leaves resemble those of potatoes.
An early-maturing variety of medium height (about 1 m.), with a compact, determinate-like growth habit. Flesh is pale yellow with pink marbling, very juicy, and has a bright, rich, and refreshing flavor. Notable for its good productivity and disease resistance. Fruits are orange, flat-round in shape, and weigh between 150 and 300 g.
VARIETY CHARACTERISTICS:
Fruits have distinct coloration at the top, a beefsteak shape with a slightly flattened appearance, and ribbed or lobed shoulders. At the stem attachment point, deep grooves (talwegs) are noticeable. The plant is indeterminate, compact, and tree-like. Yields steadily up until the first frosts.
The tomatoes are meaty and juicy, with a gourmet flavor rated 5 out of 5. For best productivity, it’s recommended to grow the plant with multiple stems. It can be grown in large containers, though this may reduce fruit size and yield. A recommended variety, just like the entire series.
