90 days, dwarf — Summertime Gold is a rugose, potato leaf dwarf with good yields of smooth, oblate shaped fruit in the four to fourteen ounce range. They are a pale, nearly waxy, yellow with a hint of a pink blush on the blossom end of some fruit which darkens post harvest. The flavor is balanced and excellent, with sweetness predominating, but quite intense, not mild. The seed cavities are small, sprinkled throughout the flesh, and the seeds are small.
Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" as a selection out of the "Sneezy family" ('Golden Dwarf Champion' and 'Green Giant', cross made by Patrina Nuske Small in 2005). It was selected by David Lockwood in 2007 and named after his daughter, Summer. 'Summertime Gold' was released to the public in 2011 in the Northern Hemisphere and in 2014 in the Southern Hemisphere. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.
In an effort to keep this variety available to home gardeners, 'Summertime Gold' has been released by "The Dwarf Tomato Project" (the breeder) to the public under the Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI). You have the freedom to use these OSSI-Pledged seeds in any way you choose. In return, if you save seeds or use 'Summertime Gold' to breed a new variety, you pledge not to restrict others' use of these seeds or their derivatives by patents or other means, and to include this pledge with any transfer of these seeds or their derivatives.
