Cross question
Hello
From this year on, i have my one tomato variety. It's a yellow cherry tomato that grows 2 meter high and gives fruits like grapes. I can eat 3 to 4 kg of 1 plant! The taste is very sweet... But now i have some questions: First, how can i release the tomato variety? What's the procedure for that? And do you guys have some ideas for a name? Kind regards and sorry if the message is not so clear.... Angelo |

Angelo,
Gele zon België sounds classy. Translated loosely as the Yellow Sun of Belgium

Good looking cluster. They look more gold
than yellow to me, but that could be the lighting in the picture. Perhaps "Gold Doubloon"? (Like the old Spanish doubloons, a gold coin from the era when tomatoes were first brought to Europe from the New World on tall ships.)

I would absolutely use a distinctive name. Not "Sweet Yellow", etc. For instance "Isis Candy" is a very distinctive name. I will never forget it. Also Jaune Flamme (yellow flame).

[re: "Gold Doubloon"]
There seems to already (or almost already, I don't know what generation it is) a "Doubloon" cultivar: http://www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=6897 Perhaps you could get together via email and flip a coin as to who keeps the name. Alternate possibilities: Inca Gold, Treasure Chest, Gold Coin, Gold Sovereign, etc.
