I'm growing some Millefleur yellow vine tomatoes this year for the first time. Has anyone tried them, what were they like?
I got the seed from http://realseeds.co.uk/centitomatoes.html
I am also growing them for the first time this year, they look great ;D
Ditto ;D
Lovely,and a pretty plant too.
As they were one of many,many tom plants and as the fruits are small I ate them as you would sweeties,yummy.
Millefleur are quite sweet my wife particularly likes them but I prefer the taste of the Red Cluster Pear. They produce thousands of tomatoes. They do very well outdoors giving high yields but in a greenhouse or polytunnel you get even bigger trusses giving almost twice as much fruit. Personally I think greenhouse space is best used for other more tender varieties as the centiflors don't need the protection to give a decent crop.
I'm trying them for the first time this year too...
I'll have a plant in the greenhouse and maybe a couple outside, and see what / if there's any difference.

Grew them last year and am growing a couple again this year.
I found they took a while to get going [must be all those flowers they have to grow], but you could pick them day after day for ages.
Last crop was November, if I remember correctly.....
