(Solanum lycopersicum). These pale yellow cherries are delicious, and grow on some of the largest clusters known! Sweet fruit is oval, each with a tiny “beak” at the blossom end. Flavor is good, the fruit keeps well, and the sight of the 20- to 40-fruit trusses on the large plants is positively mind boggling. A stunning Wild Boar Farms variety.
