Description
Garden Peach Tomato- As close as you can get to eating a peach while still eating a tomato! This heirloom produces loads of 2-3 oz fruits with a signature sweet, fruity flavor and unique velvety skin. Light yellow fruits are born on indeterminate plants and produce up until the first frost. If picked slightly under-ripe, fruits will store for weeks on end! Peach-type tomatoes date back at least 1890, during which Burpee described them as “delicate” and “melting in your mouth like a grape.”
