Lycopersicon esculentum
TOMATO-JAUNE FLAMME (Yellow Flame in French) is an outstanding French variety with a perfect, fruity blend of sweet & tart flavors. The plants are highly productive & produce clusters of apricot-colored fruit about the size of a golf ball. Outstanding for use either fresh, roasted or dried, it retains its rich color when cooked. Yellow/Orange tomatoes can be even better for you than red tomatoes as they contain a more easily assimilated form of lycopene. This is an early producer with ample crops of apricot-colored 85 – 120-gram toms & is suitable for all climate zones. An indeterminate (climbing) type so requires staking.
Sow in a good mix of soil and lightly cover, keep moist but not wet. Transplant when seedlings achieve 4-6 leaves.
