Yes, it's that big! My new favorite orange tomato: Yes, it's that big! My new favorite orange tomato: Potato Leaf Yellow. Mid-season, very productive,  blight resistant, and bounced back 100% after a spider mite infestation. Large fruit is meaty, with great flavor. No bland orange flesh here. We will have plants available for sale next year!
