The Coeur d'Alene Coop
It seems my garden is bursting with the golden glow of yellow and orange tomatoes this year. These are just a few of the varieties I'm growing or testing for next season's offerings. The first three "on the vine" images are Idaho Gem, a dwarf plant that produces loads of full-size fruit; Yellow Potato Leaf, a large, delicious beefsteak, and Lucky Bling, a variegated leaf variety. A few more include Fairytale Fruit, Tlacolula Gold, and Gloria's Treat, another dwarf plant that produces very large tomatoes. Of course, I'm also growing my two favorite yellows... the micro-dwarf, Lil Peeps, and the best tasting large tomato ever, Dr. Wyche's. Yep, struck gold this year!#thecoeurdalenecoop #heirloomtomatoes #yellowtomatoes #orangetomatoes #goldentomatoes #tomatosunshine #strikingtomatogold ... See MoreSee Less
