Galina's Yellow


Galina’s Yellow is a Russian heirloom from Siberia.  The seed was introduced commercially in the early 90’s, and is an excellent cherry tomato.  Very sweet flavor, about 1 inch diameter fruit, and is just a beautiful looking plant.  The plant is an indeterminate potato leaf and performs very well in cool weather, Galina Yellow is an absolute must.

Blush

This tomato was another one recommended to me by Carolyn Male. I believe Carolyn got the seed from Fred Hempel in California to trial and then had offered it to tomatoville members in 2011.

I would have to say that this one of my new favorites.  Blush was a very popular tomato at the farmers markets last year. It  not only added spectacular flavor, but that extra appeal to my basket full of small cherry tomatoes as well.  A hint to all market growers- GROW THIS ONE IF YOU CAN.

The Blush tomato is a small yellow pointed striped- plum.  Be sure to really let them ripen up before eating.  They should be soft and have almost an orangey color to them.

I find the taste to be sweet and juicy with a little crunch.  They are not too meaty at all.  I feel as if I am snacking on candy when indulging in these magnificent pieces of fruit.
