I started with a 4" starter plant, Jubilee Heirloom Tomato from Chef Jeff's. Jubilee's are a bright orange color with a mild flavor and meaty texture, they are also less acidic than regular tomatoes. These make great tomatoes for those who cannot tolerate the high acid content of regular tomatoes. (right) My first ripe fruit on my Jubilee on August 21, 2009.Growing Tips: Jubilee Tomatoes prefer full sun and require staking or a trellis to climb. Water regularly through summer. Starting in August, water every other day to help fruit develop. They will grow to 4' - 5' tall.
Harvesting: Jubilee's take 80 days to mature, pick when bright orange and firm.
