Orange Hat Micro Dwarf tomato (Oranzhevaja Shapochka)
(Solanum Lycopersicum) Fresh seed Harvested from Aug.-Oct. 2023
This is a cute petite open pollinated regular leaf, supposedly determinate variety (I would say semi determinate) It grows 8-10 inches tall and not much wider. Excellent container variety for indoors or out. They grow fine in 6" pots, I use 1-2 gallon and they do get slightly larger, but I use bigger pots so I don't have to water them as often.
The fruits are quarter size and ripen from green to yellow to orange. They are thin skinned and have excellent zesty sweet flavor. I was impressed with both the taste and production-- Cracks me up how such a piddly lil plant can create so many tasty orange gumballs.

Brix content is about 5.5

Pollination indoors is no big deal, interact with them, talk nicely and pet them softly or talk filthy and shake the livin' shit outta them if need be. ;O)
Start seeds 40-60 days before your last expected frost, 1/8" deep and keep most.
Maturity is 65-75 days from transplant and fruit set is earlier than most dwarfs.
Perfectly fine with or without stakes.

2023 notes: Plants did well, didn't get any new pictures this year because I had to surround them with 1/4" mesh wire to prevent whatever clan of small furry critters were taking great pleasure in eating them as they ripened--tough to get pics through small wire mesh especially when the plants have grown into it and there was no possibility of removing it at that stage.

2022 notes: May 22nd transplanted all 24 plants in a 10" deep kiddie pool. June 26th, doing great with blossoms everywhere. August 10th, some fruit turning orange/yellow. August 21st, wild gerbils seem to be slipping through the cage and eating them as fast as they ripen. Put Felix on guard duty. Aug-Sep picked almost 4 gallons.

2019 notes: Grows well in 6" pots 1-2 gallon pots require less attention/water outside- very good production (even better outside) excellent juicy flavor.

Ships for free via USPS first class mail the same or next business day.
