Uluru Ochre

65 days, dwarf — The vigorous, dwarf, rugose, regular leaf plants are relatively compact, quite early to produce and prolific. Producing a good yield of medium to large sized (six to twelve ounces) oblate uniquely colored tomatoes that are essentially the first "black/orange" variety we've seen - orange flesh with green overtones, and somewhat amber/orange/green in appearance. The flavor can be a bit variable season to season, but at its best, it has an absolutely delicious, smokey flavor.

'Uluru Ochre' originated as a cross between 'Orange Heirloom' and 'Rosella Purple' made by Patrina Nuske Small and named "Rosy." 'Uluru Ochre' was selected and named by Patrina. Among those who contributed to stabilizing this "Dwarf Tomato Project" variety are Patrina, Patrick Sullivan, Steve McClaren, Linda Black, Marla McClaren, Ted Maiden, Paul Fish, Lurley Hernandez, Dee Sackett, Ginny Bishton, Sue Bailey, Lisa Moore, Sherry Shiesl, Simone Pennig, Amanda Fischer, Sandra Tipton, Bill Minkey, and Craig LeHoullier. Introduced in 2015.

Absolutely delicious!

I have twelve different varieties of tomatoes growing and besides the Golden Heart, these are my one of our favorites. I wouldn't say Smokey taste but definitely a full, rich, delicious, melt in your mouth kind of taste. I'm definitely growing these again!

My favorite new tomato.

Productive plants produce large tomatoes that not only have a unique color inside and out, but taste good too. They have the sweet flavor of an orange tomato along with the richness of a black tomato, with a little fruity tanginess of a green tomato. My favorite new tomato the first year that I planted it.
