Amish Gold

tgplp · May 30, 2011

Has anyone grown this variety? I was browsing through TomatoFest's website, and came across Amish Gold. It looks great! It's a cross between Sungold and Amish Paste, so it should be good. I'd like to grow it next year. Anyone know anything about it?

Beefyboy has grown it and likes it a lot- maybe you could send him a PM after the holiday weekend and ask him about it.
I was hoping to grow it this year but couldn't get any of the seeds to germinate.

Amish gold is one of my favorites. I grow it every year without fail. Excellent flavor, very sweet but also tangy. I save my seed and still get one or two red plants each year. Both are great. I highly recommend this this one.

Sounds great! Sorry about your seeds, Kathy.

I hate it when that happens. I'll PM beefyboy later tomorrow!

It happens every year- no biggie. I plant extras to plan for the inevitable duds.
