Gold Nugget

The Gold Nugget tomato is a highly productive, determinate (bush) cherry tomato variety known for its early maturity (55–60 days) and sweet, low-acid, golden-yellow fruit. Ideal for small spaces and container gardening, the compact 2–3 foot plants produce heavy clusters of 1-ounce, round-to-oval tomatoes that are often seedless.
