Jolene Hybrid Tomato Seeds

Jolene tomato is a standout determinate slicer that combines classic tomato flavor, excellent disease resistance, and early harvests?making it a must-grow for both home gardeners and market growers. Bred to set fruit in heat when other tomatoes do not, Jolene is a great choice for the Southeast. With a maturity time of just 73 to 79 days from transplant, Jolene delivers early, abundant yields of perfectly round, smooth, 8 to 10-ounce fruits with bright red skin and firm, juicy flesh.

The flavor of Jolene is everything a tomato lover wants?rich, balanced, and slightly sweet with just the right amount of acidity. It's ideal for fresh slicing, sandwiches, caprese salads, or light cooking. The fruits resist cracking and maintain great shelf life, making them excellent for harvest and storage.

Plants grow in a compact determinate habit, reaching about 3 to 4 feet tall, making them perfect for raised beds, containers, or small garden plots. The determinate plants set their fruit in a short period of time, making Jolene ideal for canning and saucing.

One of the biggest advantages of Jolene tomato is its strong disease resistance package, including high resistance to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt (Races 1 and 2), and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus?a common issue in the Southeast. This makes Jolene a more reliable and productive option compared to traditional heirlooms and many open-pollinated varieties.
