78 days, dwarf — The rugose, regular leaf plants of 'Dwarf Audrey's Love' only grow two to three feet tall but are fairly productive. The paste-type fruit are elongated, plum shaped, weight two to four ounces each, are chocolate colored (deep red with green shoulders) have green striping, are juicy, and have a mild, balanced flavor.
Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project," ''Dwarf Audrey's Love' was selected out of the "Kiwi" family and named by Robin Bort after her mother. Along with key contributor Robin Bort, Craig LeHoullier, Lee Newman, Justin Sieglaff, Bill Burke, Suzanna Dzejachok, Bill Yoder, Nicole Diana, Donna Marie Kudrak, Chris Mauchline and Desire Sommers participated in the development of the variety, with Bill Minkey growing out the final selection. Each packet contains at least 20 seeds.
It's mid November and my Dwarf Audrey's Love plants are still producing. Both were severely cropped by deer in early June and both recovered from the loss of all leaves and eventually gave me 20+ tomatoes with more on the vine (can you call dwarf plants vines?). But the flavor is why I am reviewing them. I really liked their taste and wish I had more plants. I'll definitely get more seeds for 2025.
We tried this variety this year and weren't disappointed. I neglected them a little bit and they still produced heavy yields. They are great on sandwiches and salads. My son, who is our biggest tomato critic, really liked these. We are definitely growing this again next year.
Had a great summer growing two of these plants on my balcony this year. Chicago had a couple stretches of extremely humid and hot weather that led to some blossom end rot on my earliest fruits, but once it passed the rest were spectacular. These are some of my favorite tomatoes Ive ever had everything you could want out of a summer tomato. Beautiful coloring, complex and deep flavor, easy to grow and very productive. So so good. Cant wait to grow (and eat!!) again next year.
