    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A big hit with coastal gardeners – no matter how unsuitable the Summer weather may be, ‘Sun Gold’ will still produce tomatoes for you! Early too - (65 days). It is an indeterminate & vigorous grower (you must provide a big cage or a strong trellis), & it will produce an amazing number of cherry type orange fruit. Sweet & delicious – highly recommended. Resistant to Verticillium & Fusarium 1 & 2.
