Sweet Adelaide

90 days, dwarf — A mid to late season, rugose, regular leaf dwarf, producing medium (average about eight ounces), oblate shaped, pink colored fruit with a balanced, delicious flavor. It is a vigorous and productive variety that makes a wonderful slicing tomato.

Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" as a selection out of the "Happy family" ('New Big Dwarf' and 'Paul Robeson'), 'Sweet Adelaide' 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. Introduced in 2014. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.

Another lovely pink tomato to try - a fine slicing type

What is nice about Sweet Adelaide is that it isn't as flashy as some of our releases. It is delicious, reliable and productive. It looks like a German Johnson type but is smoother, and the flavor doesn't have the musky off putting element that many indeterminate pink heirlooms possess. This can be a real workhorse of the tomato garden - simply a really good, attractive tomato with the useful compact, dwarf growing habit.
