Mallorcan Winter Tomato
Solanum lycopersicum
Fresh tomatoes in January? This unique tomato from Spain’s Mallorca Island is known locally as Remilette de Mallorca. Mallorcans allow it to ramble and drape over walls where the heat from the stones increases both flavor and tender ripeness. Otherwise, the tomato vines are pulled up with fruit attached and hung upside down in a protected place to ripen over the winter. Mustard yellow skin with orange-pink flesh, each tomato resembles an oversized guava. Also excellent for drying in the sun. Minimum 25 seeds.  Germination 96%.
