I appreciate Yellow Pigmy as much for the way its flavor evolves as for how well its fruits keep. The yellow fruits are juicy and have a sweet flavor with a lemony, refreshing note. Some fruits, as they develop a pink blush, develop a sweeter, fruitier flavor that reminds me a little of ground cherry.

Its fruits keep well after harvest, allowing you to enjoy them for longer.

With its micro-dwarf growth habit and height of about 30–40 cm, Yellow Pigmy easily finds a place in a pot, on a balcony, in a planter, or in a small space in the garden. It is also well suited to indoor growing with supplemental lighting.

And if you get the urge to sow, you can start it indoors whenever you like. It's an excellent way to pass the time.

Every variety has its own personality. The best tomato isn't the one that pleases everyone, but the one that finds its place in your garden, your kitchen, and your habits.
