Comparing Jaunne Flamme to Tangerine Ailsa Craig

[ScottinAtlanta]

Folks, I like the vivid yellow tomatoes, and two in particular have done very well here in Atlanta over the years (I should have included Egg Yolk here). I grow both in containers. Those two are:

Jaunne Flamme
Tangerine Ailsa Craig (seeds sent to me by ChrisK in 2012 - thanks again Chris).

Production: Both are productive, producing around 40-60 fruits per plant over a season. JF seems to come in flushes, while TAC produces more regularly.

Disease: The TAC is slightly more disease resistant than is JF, which can go down to septoria pretty fast if not careful.
Taste: TAC is slightly sweeter, while JF has a deeper tomato taste.

Size: JF is slightly larger than TAC.



Both are excellent saladettes and very pretty tomatoes for salad or salsa.
