Blush Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) We received these initial seeds from a customer in Truro NS who said she sourced them from Annapolis. Blush was developed by Fred Hemple of Artisan Seeds. The tomato has since been wideley circulated for many years for good reason. This is a beautiful long yellow cherry tomato with red pink marbling and yellow stripes. Very flavourful, makes a great salad and snacking tomato. Plants are uniform and extremely prolific, producing high yields on indeterminate vines. Excellent disease resistance.

Staking tomatoes (indeterminate) should be transplanted into 3-4 inch pots. Harden off plants for 4-5 days after risk of frost has passed.
