Title: Sungold Tomato
Post by: Sinbad7 on July 23, 2010, 16:07:11
Can anyone tell me if this is a Sungold please?

If it is, is it ready to eat?

Ollie do you think it could be a Ferline?

I can't find the packets that I grew from seed anywhere and as I wanted to try to beat the blight I know I sowed Sungold thinking they were early and I might have sown Ferline.

Many thanks for the replies.  I'm still not sure what it is but you  did stop me from eating it.  A friend told me to try it but so glad I didn't now, every tomato I succeed with is precious to me.

Have been eating the piccollo and Apero for lunch all this week but will be heaven to sink my teeth into a proper sized tomato.
