Sungold’s fruity or tropical flavor is a big hit with everyone who tastes it. The bright apricot-orange round globes are 1 1/4 inches across and are borne on long, 10-15 fruit, grape-like trusses.  Vigorous plants start yielding early and bear right through the season.  Plan on setting up your lawn chair next to your Sungold for blissful snacking. If you grew or tasted a delicious orange cherry tomato but cant recall its name... its a sungold! its the main cherry tomato that we and many other small farmers choose to grow over all others, and its a super famous variety among home growers as well.
