TOMATO Blush 4″sq

Blush’s sweet, fruity flavor has won our farm’s tomato tasting year after year. Fruits are oval, 2- 2½” long, golden with a “blush” of grapefruit red. Blush is vigorous, productive and boy is it tasty! It is a perfect example of needed innovation in the breeding of new heirloom vegetables. Introduced in 2011 by farmer/breeder Fred Hempel of Baia Nicchia Farm in Sunol, CA. Tomatoes of similar size and shape are commonly called a “saladette” or “julienne cherry,” and are perfect eaten fresh or cooked. It is sweet and tart, juicy and aromatic with overtones of tangerine. It’s so fruity that Ali said “wow, you’d think you were eating ‘real’ fruit!” Steve couldn’t help himself, eating over 20 in one sitting! Growers will appreciate that it has decent resistance to Early Blight.
