Fruit Color: Yellow. Shape: Round. Size: 2-4 oz. Plant Habit: Indeterminate Plant Size: 5’
Tomatoes have fuzzy skin just like a peach! They are mildly sweet 2-4 oz fruits that are fun to grow and quite a novelty.
History: This heirloom was developed in 1890 by plant breeder Elbert S. Carman and was introduced as a novelty in the Hallock & Sons 1890 seed catalog. In 1893 Burpee described this heirloom as "delicate, melting in the mouth like a grape".
Great producer and seemed pretty hardy. Fun tomato to grow and watch peoples reaction to a fuzzy tomato. Will grow again and the fruit is great for salads or a snack.

Fun to grow!
These were quite the conversation starter in our garden, the fuzzy skin is fun! Delicious in salads.

Can you plant seeds in January? Yes, because for us gardeners, it's hard to resist waiting! And there is no reason to wait. That said, in most growing regions, starting...

Plants were quite bushy and full of peppers. Great flavor. Made a wonderful little Ristra with some of the later harvested peppers. Will continue to grow these yearly.
These plants were super healthy all season long and produced a LOT of fruit. They'll add heat and color to any dish. They made my cowboy candy and pickled jalapeños extra special!
Very good germination rate and super abundant and delicious peppers!. I had them in 10g and 5g fabric pots and they very well the last two years. Amazing to smoke and dry / freeze to have throughout the year! I just made a spicy brown porter mustard with scotch bonnets! Also made an amazing roasted scotch bonnet hot sauce! yum!
These grow large. We roast them and peel them and make green chile from them. My husband adores them.
Made Chili Mac for my Step son and he ate it all in one sitting.
I plant 10 plants every year.
Grew the purple jalapenos last summer. Slow to get going, but ended up with a nice compact bush in a pot. I am trying to overwinter them by bringing the.pot inside for the winter. It is still growing, small purple peppers about 1" long.
Every spring it's my mission to introduce our community to Sandia Seed Companies Mexico Midget Tomatoes! This our the perfect variety to grow in boxes and grow abundantly to feed as many of my neighbors as possible. Thank you for your Amazing Varieties!
This tomato just kept producing when other big tomatoes stopped. I had late fall tomatoes fresh out of the garden into October. The color in a salad can’t be matched.
This is a beautiful and prolific pepper. The flavor is great and the heat, on a scale of 1-10, i would say is a 6. Not too hot but hot enough to impart the right amount of heat your whatever your cooking. I will definitely grow these every year!
Unusual because they grow upward! They did really well in containers in my greenhouse in Nova Scotia, Canada. I started out growing Hatch chiles because I'm from Colorado and SO miss Hatch roasted,but these taste great so I'll order more this year.
Bought seeds last year(2024). Started early indoors with heat mat. Didn't have high expectations as I live in northern Michigan. I had to wait til June to out outside, but once established they took off. I had 4 plants and received 50-60 peppers. It wasn't the best summer for hot weather plants, but the seedlings were strong and resilient. They kept right on producing until frost. I waited until they turned color to pick the first batch. Once I picked, the plant went crazy, producing tons of peppers. Some I was able to harvest and some didn't get the chance to mature. I will definitely be planting again!
