HISTORY
Noted as far back as the 1600s, these bite-sized gems were sometimes called “corn seed” or “yellow fig” tomatoes because they were dried, sugared, and made into preserves. Fresh from the garden, they have a subtle sweet taste and turn deep golden yellow when fully ripe.

HABIT
Vigorous 6-foot indeterminate vines produce a seemingly endless number of 1–1½ inch pear-shaped yellow fruits in clusters. While vines can sprawl, tall supports yield higher quality fruit.

CULTURE
Start seed indoors 4 to 6 weeks before last frost or sow directly in the garden.
Plant seed 4 inches apart and cover with 1/4 inch fine soil.
Keep evenly moist until germination (7 to 14 days).
When seedlings are 4 inches tall, thin to 18 to 24 inches apart.
Fruit develops best flavor when organically fertilized.
Matures in 78 days.
