Tomato - Brandywine, Yellow (Indeterminate)
The Yellow Brandywine Tomato is just like the Pink Brandywine Tomato, except it’s yellow. Like siblings, these tomatoes probably shouldn’t be compared, but they really are ditto each other—ribbed shoulders, potato-leaf foliage, small seed core, sweet and tangy slicer, 1-2 lb fruits with no two alike. Except it’s yellow. And ripens a little sooner.
- Balanced flavor
- Golden yellow skin and flesh
- Potato-leaf foliage
- Good fresh or cooked
