I had just transplanted it as it was sharing the same size pot with 2 others, that is why he is a little dirty.-Rena

Rena-are you going to be saving seed from these plants? If so, I would sure like a small sample to grow in my greenhouse this fall and winter. Looks like a determinate to me, please post when you try the fruit. All the best.

Andrey It is really small and its tomatoes are Yellow not red. The plant is not even 6 inches tall! I amazed at the leaf to fruit ratio. -Rena

It could be the Yellow of Micro-Tom, but from Germany as its name speaks for itself. Would like to trade for its seeds in autumn :wink:

Rena,

Could be. I asked Dr. Scott for some Micro Gemma seeds, but he sent me a couple of his other dwarves. I guess they're hard to come by. Yours look great!
