Dwarf Caitydid is an indeterminate, dwarf (tree-type) plant with regular leaf rugose foliage that produces lots of 3-8 oz., smooth, oblate, bi-colored, yellow tomatoes with red swirls outside, and heavy red coloration in the flesh. The flavor is well balanced and delicious.

Developed from a cross between New Big Dwarf and Mortgage Lifter, Pesta Strain by Patrina Nuske Small in 2007. Dwarf Caitydid was selected and named by Craig LeHoullier after his daughter, Caitlin, in 2011.

These seeds are publicly listed at the OSSI site so there can be no confusion as to their status—they are pledged to be free from any restrictions, cannot be patented, and can be used for further breeding and selection by anyone who wishes to do so.
