I bought this as Golden Jubilee. For me the yield was great early on in the season. Customers loved them for looks and flavor. I tend to prefer the orange/yellow tomatoes and was fond of the flavor as well. I did not get great yield at the end of the season though. I did not fertilize well in mid season like I normally do so that may have been my fault. I am growing again next season.

I was not impressed with this tomato. Although it is a beautiful looking tomato, I didn\'t care for the taste. I did not produce a lot for me. It was wasted space in my garden.

I basically threw this tomato in an unfertilized, unincorporated spot near a fence. It grew 6-7' tall, producing a HUGE amount of small plum shape fruit. The taste was okay to me...my wife raved over them. It developed a tough skin as the weather got hotter. But early summer was best. It produced first among all my tomatoes and lasted the longest. This is a fail safe tomato for those who have difficulty in growing them.

In last year's late blight season Jubilee was the highest producing tomato by far. The fruits are large, uniformly shaped with a pleasant taste and not overly acid.

This cultivar like its newer look alike Sunray performs well. Yields are equal to the open pollinated round reds. Taste is not too my liking, it is dry like a paste tomato, with very little flavor. I like yellow tomatoes but not this one.
