The best tomato variety for an early, lemon-yellow tomato. Very popular. This variety produces compact, bushy, determinate, regular-leaf tomato plants that yield 4-6 ounce, meaty, uniformly-round, delicious, bright yellow tomatoes that are very sweet (almost seem acid-free). A wonderful choice to add a zesty spark to tomato salads or a splash of bright yellow color to your favorite salsas. Tomatoes are good for slicing making them perfect for sandwiches. Taxi can be grown well in most areas. They even hold up well in hot, humid growing regions which is perfect for us. This is a determinate plant which means it is non-vining and easier to grow and trellis in small spaces than indeterminate varieties.
