More Details

Small golden yellow-orange tomatoes with the sweetest flavour of any tomato I know. 'Sungold' is very prolific and my children's favourite. We do a second sowing of this for planting inside.

If kept frost free, and the tips not pinched out, 'Sungold' crops until November. Its smaller fruit will ripen even when light levels are low.

Common Name Cherry Tomato

Sowing, Seeds, Planting Sow under cover at end of Jan-March for planting out in April/May.
Care Tips Under cover or outside they need staking, and regular watering and feeding for best results. Need trimming and support, pinch out the tops once they have set 5 or 6 trusses. While still small, you also need to pinch out the side shoots. Water regularly to prevent splitting. Find more information on how to grow tomatoes from seed.

Harvesting Cordons fruit over a long period. You should be picking tomatoes in July and continue harvesting from the cordons until November.
