Excellent yellow, Tom.

Thanks.

Tom's Yellow Wonder: A very rewarding plant that will return next year. Terrific meatiness and great fruit size to more than a pound. Flavour has more depth to it than a routine yellow, with some tomatoey zing balanced with complexity. Not sweet like the Sneezy blushing yellows I've been eating of late. More of a seriously big beefy beefsteak. A great one for fresh eating on toast. Flavour 8/10 + 0.5pts for size, productivity and vigor = 8.5pts (very high for a yellow).

Last but not least, this was the first fruit. So who knows, it might be upgraded to 9pts in coming weeks. I have not one, but two TYWs standing 7ft and loaded in my late patch. What a treat

Cheers, Grubs.
