Yellow Peach Tomato is an unusual and highly rewarding variety, notable for its softly fuzzy skin and sweet, low-acid flavour. The pale yellow fruits are thin-skinned, making them a pleasure to eat fresh from the vine, and they store exceptionally well once picked. A reliable and prolific producer, Yellow Peach is also impressively crack-resistant, meaning you get more usable fruit throughout the growing season. A perfect choice for gardeners seeking a distinctive and delicious tomato variety.
