Sweet Adelaide
Developed in the 2006-2013 by the members of the Dwarf Tomato Project from a cross between New Big Dwarf and Paul Robeson (Happy family). It is the collaborative work of Patrina Nuske Small (who named it), Jeff Casey, Craig LeHoullier, David Lockwood, Lurley Hernandez, Ted Maiden, Doug Frank, Damon Huck, Tanya Kucak, and Bill Minkey, with input from many others. Introduced commercially by Casey’s Heirloom Tomatoes of Airdrie in 2014.
Stout Dwarf (tree-type) indeterminate rugose regular leaf plants produce moderate yields of 3-9 oz., pink, meaty fruits that vary in shape, from round, oblate to boat-shaped, with somewhat ruffled shoulders. Excellent sweet, complex, well-balanced flavors.
