| Blondkopfchen. It's a little yellow cherry with a pointed end. It's very thin-skinned. It's one of our favorites, it's usually the first tomato that fruits in our garden, it also seems to crop forever, not only is it among the first to crop, it's always the last cropper and it isn't stopped until knocked off by frost. And it's also the cherry tomato I have the worst time spelling, lol. |

| I have Blondkopfchen out in the garden right now. It is VERY thin skinned- its skin is translucent. It's very, very sweet with a nice tartness. Yummy right off the plant. It grows well in hot weather but didn't actually start setting fruit until we had about 10 days of low-to-mid 60s for daytime temps, and then it just took off. It really does not seem to like being warm. |
