Dwarf Beryl Beauty 
90 days, dwarf — Mid-season variety — One of the more productive new dwarf varieties from the "Dwarf Tomato Project." 'Dwarf Beryl Beauty' has deep green, rugose potato leaf foliage and a very stout central stem, growing to four feet in height, and perhaps a bit more depending upon conditions.
Fruit are smooth and round, ranging from three to five ounces, and barely change color upon ripening - though a pale pink blossom end blush develops on many of the fruit. The flesh is bright green, and the flavor is balanced, full and delicious.
'Dwarf Beryl Beauty' originated from a cross between 'Golden Dwarf Champion' (a medium fruited yellow dwarf) with 'Green Giant', made in 2006 by Patrina Nuske Small in Australia. This variety was selected and named by Craig LeHoullier after the gemstone Beryl, which exhibits coloring similar to the fruit. Now in its ninth generation, it is a quite stable open-pollinated variety but still may produce the occasional off-type plant.
Others involved in its development are Michael Volk, Richard Watson (New Zealand), Howard Kushner, Lisa Moore, Reinhard Kraft (Germany) and Bill Minkey. Introduced in 2011. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.

One of the first varieties to emerge from the Dwarf Tomato Breeding Project, this has been a favorite of mine for over a decade. The prolific potato leaf dwarf growing vines produce lots of smooth, round medium sized tomatoes with a full, rich, sparkling flavor. The tomatoes barely change color upon ripening - give them a gentle squeeze, and also note the pale pink blossom end blush on the larger tomatoes. This is a top 10 variety among all of our project releases.
