Tomato-Sun Gold Cherry
Solanum lycopersicum
The sweet, and tart taste of this tomato is incredible. Some have equated it to the candy of tomatoes. Large clusters of beautiful golden-orange fruits will cover this favorite among gardeners. Ideal for snacking, this sweet and tasty "fruity" tomato is a real treat in the garden. Due to its very thin skin, Sun Golds are hard to ship, so finding them in a grocery store is very rare. If you're really lucky, you might find them at a local farmers market, but for the most part, you'll have to grow these yourself.
