I grew 2 Mountain Gold plants last summer and they produced so much that I could hardly keep up with them! Any time I needed to grab a tomato for dinner, there was sure to be one of these ready to eat. I had one staked & caged, and the other unstaked & draped across some tree stumps, and both did very well.
For cooking, they were very good, & made delicious fresh pasta sauce. They weren't my favorite for slicing, not as much flavor as others. They froze pretty well & I'm still enjoying them in February. |
