(Bush or non-staking)

Trio in bowlGold Nugget

Pictured in the bowl, the bright yellow ones are Gold Nugget and the bright red ones are Tumbler.  The earliest tomato to ripen in our garden, year after year. Bushes grow 1m (3') and are covered with 2cm (1") diameter, round, yellow tomatoes with a rich sweet taste when fully ripe. Incredible yields all summer and perfect for containers.

A popular yellow cherry tomato on a compact plant suitable for containers.  Good flavour and productive.

Red AlertRed Alert

This variety ripens much earlier than its nearest rival.  A determinate bush type ideal for either garden or patio.  Great flavour.  The yields and quality will amaze you.

This has been our favourite cherry tomato for pure tomato taste and it is very early.  The fruit set is so heavy that we have had trouble with the branches breaking when we treat the plant as a "Tumbler" type.  We now put a cage around the plants when they are small and they are much easier to control.  We recommend this variety if you want tasty cherry tomatoes in early June.    

Trio in bowlTumbler

Pictured in the bowl, the bright red ones are Tumbler and the bright yellow ones are Gold Nugget.  Extremely early determinate, bushy plants are excellent for hanging baskets or large pots. Masses of 1 1/4 in./3 cm bright red round, sweet fruit.

What more can we say about Tumbler!  We have been growing them for years and people come back every year asking for them.  The are productive, early, and perfectly suited for container growing.  And this year they are hard to find due to a crop failure in the seed industry.
