Also known as “Beam’s Yellow Pear”, this is a very tasty pear shaped yellow tomato. This tomato is pre-1800 and is very popular today. Add wonderful taste and color to your summer salads. Clusters of pear-shaped, yellow fruits with mild, delicious flavor are attractive and tasty whole for salads, fresh eating and make a tasty fresh salsa. 

We like to include at least one pear shaped tomato in our bigger gardens because they’re so fun to have in the mix. This yellow pear variety is a great choice because while its technically a “novelty” tomato its also very reliable and a good producer.
