| This
famous pre-1800's tomato variety is also occasionally known as Beam's Yellow
Pear tomato and is similar to the Red Pear tomatoes, except that it differs
in color. These are just like the little yellow pear tomatoes that your
grandmother once grew in her garden when you were a child. Fortunately,
the Yellow Pear Tomato is very much alive today and has remained popular
for many decades.
This variety produces an abundance of cherry sized, pear shaped tomatoes of a brilliant yellow color. These unique little little tomatoes provide a real conversation piece to those who have never seen them and offer a great deal of ornamental value if grown in a container gardener. The tomatoes themselves are produced in a large abundance and features a very sweet, mild and fresh flavor. Their excellent color, unique shape and luscious taste make them an ideal tomato for salads, as well as for relishes, sauces and for making tomato preserves. This tomato variety has been documented as being very high in vitamins and other nutrients. With its unusual shape and color, this tomato's a great choice to introduce your children to the benefit of eating healthy vegetables. This tomato is so vigorous
that it is notorious for self seeding itself. Yellow Pear is also a great
cold tolerant tomato variety and will generally last further into the season
than other varieties. Typically, Yellow Pear is the last tomato living
in most gardens at the end of the year. As the plants themselves are very
vigorous, staking or caging is required. Indeterminate. Matures in about
70 to 80 days.
