About Jaune Flammée (Jaune Flammee)
‘Jaune Flammée’ is a family heirloom from France, originated with Norbert Parreira of Hellimer, France. Gorgeous study in contrasts, with bright orange skin surrounding reddish when fully ripe flesh, that is a rare find in heirloom tomatoes. Fruits are slightly larger than cherry varieties, about 2 to 3 oz., borne in clusters of 6-8, 2 seed cavities, with thick walls that still remain tender and flavorful. Sweet, high-yielding and especially valued as a salad tomato for its beautiful appearance.
Indeterminate, regular leaf plants with very good yield. Early, first ripe fruit can be harvested about 55-65 days after transplant.

I have grown this tomato every year for ten years. Its seeds save true to type, and it germinates reliably. The plants will grow and thrive outdoors, even in adverse English weather conditions. I trim each truss after eight fruits have set. The average weight per fruit is between 90g-120g. It is always one of the earliest cultivars to ripen, and the acid-sweet flavours are delicious. It will continue to set fruit until the first frosts. I have never had problems with disease or blossom end rot. This is one tomato plant that seems to prefer outdoor cultivation, rather than greenhouse conditions.
This is great information, thank you Irvine!
