Lycopersicon lycopersicum 'Jaune Flammee'

One of my top 5 favorite tomatoes to grow! This produced tomatoes from May to December for me. I started the seed in January and planted the first week of March in a 5 gallon bucket. They produced so well that I felt guilt for only giving them the 5 gallon bucket. This year I will plant a few and try a bigger container and in the ground. Seems to thrive on Texas weather abuse...

Fantastic flavor as well - most "yellow/orange" tomato skeptics will even agree that this is a keeper.

Also available from SSE.

One of my most favorite tasting small cherry-types. Very nice clusters of bright orange fruit. It's been in the garden since I first tried.

While this plant does grow quickly and prolificly and is fairly healthy overall, the taste really leaves something to be desired. It is somewhere between a large cherry and a very small sandwich tomato in size, and really doesn't have the sweetness and freshness you expect from a cherry or the meatiness and depth of flavor you expect from a sandwich tomato. It seems like there should be a good use for its mild flavor and kind of liquidy texture, but I as of yet haven't been able to find one.

Vigorous plant which set tomatoes for us even in the heat of summer. Fruit seems to get sweeter when left longer on the vine. Everyone who tried them was impressed.

I put my seedling of this out around May 20th, and just harvested the first ripe tomatoes today. They're beautiful deep orange fruits, nice and vivid in the mouth, too.

One of my favorite tomatoes. Like a 'sweet tart' as far as tomatoes go. Nice appearance and minimal cracking problems for me. Produces well in the heat.

A nice little tomato - averages about an ounce and a half. Delightful to cut into as it's a neon orange outside, but has a lovely red interior. Very prolific - rich and tangy flavor.

This is my first year growing Jaune Flamme. Lots of small tomatoes which have a surprisingly nice flavor. This was the first tomato to ripen this year. I will certainly grow again.

Growing Jaune Flammee for the first time this year, and it's a really nice rich flavor. I've seen some splitting, but it seems to hold well on the vine despite that, and gets its best flavor when it is a deep orange on the skin (almost pumpkin color). New growers watch out - this is up there with Juliet and Sungold for outgrowing its cage or stake. Expect plants to reach 5-6 feet, possibly more (I don't feed mine heavily, so they may not be as large as some.)

This is the first year we have grown this tomato--it has intense tomato flavor and it is beautiful too.

This is my first year growing this tomato and we like it so well that it will now be one we grow every year from now on. It has a great tomato taste.

Absolutely a great little tomato! It's about the size of a jumbo egg with a red interior.It ripens early and produces throughout the summer.They hang in clusters of about 6 to 8 and have a great 'tomatoey' taste.Not too sweet..not too tart.

It is Regular Leafed and seems well suited to many growing conditions.It will split if too much rain falls,but what tomato won't?

I have dried tons of these and they are among my favorites for using in homemade breads.
