Description
Ida Gold is a sweet cocktail tomato with lots of bright orange-gold fruits. The early harvestability also makes this variety attractive to grow. With a fruit weight of 30 g, Ida Gold is particularly suitable for fresh consumption. Our bush tomatoes should be protected from the rain, e.g. under an overhanging roof. They do not need to be pruned or tied up as they grow determinately. Growing them in pots (at least 5 litres) and on the balcony is highly recommended.
