All-America Selections (AAS) Winner 2017
Grow your tomato crop on the balcony or deck this year with Patio Choice. This delightful yellow cherry offers more than 100 mildly flavored fruits in a single, ultra-compact 18-inch plant. You can pop it right into a 10-inch pot, a hanging basket, or even a combo tub with flowering annuals and foliage plants.
Winner of the All-America Selections for its high yields, super-compact size, and unbeatable disease resistance, Patio Choice Yellow is ready in no time, setting its crop all at once to make harvesting even easier. This is a plant that looks as good as it tastes—the 1-inch-diameter cherries weigh in at just half an ounce either, but explode with a rich, juicy, mild bite the whole family will love. And with yields like this, you can eat some of the crop right off the plant and still have plenty for canning, saucing, drying, or freezing.
Patio Choice Yellow stands up to heat, humidity, and rain beautifully, and demonstrates great resistance to three common tomato diseases: tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), verticillium wilt, and Fusarium wilt. If you've tried tomatoes before and gotten only poor yields, Patio Choice Yellow will change your mind about how easy and successful this crop really is.
Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover, or simply bring the container indoors.

Most prolific plant ever 0 people found this helpfulI bought this plant based on a you tube recommendation. The plant exceeded any expectations I could have had. It was about 18 inches tall and full of flowers. We had a storm and the plant snapped in half. I was so upset I just left it. A few weeks later I realized the plant was growing a new stalk out of the side of the broken tomato plant. Sure enough it reached 18 inches for the second time and produced over 100 yummy tomatoes. I will forever grow this plant. Best purchase ever

Yellow patio tomatoes 0 people found this helpfulI grew these in the garden: one plant in soil, another in a 5 gal grow bag. Both had high yields. I will grow them this winter indoors under grow lights in a mini greenhouse.

Poor seed germination 0 people found this helpfulMy hobby is growing tomatoes. I grow several varieties every year. On February 20, I made an order for five varieties from your company. All tomato varieties have grown well except Patio Choice Yellow Hybrid Cherry Tomato. I planted ten seeds, but no sprouts appeared. I feel disappointed.
-
Very Early 0 people found this helpfulI bought these seeds because of the early ripening of only 45 days. They came through with flying colors. My area has problems with tomato diseases so I like to have tomato plants that can give fruit before they succumb to disease. I planted two succession crops. Both performed exceptionally well, and we had tomatoes much earlier than ever before.

Winner for the mid Atlantic 0 people found this helpfulStarted seeds 4/4, transplanted it’s short stocky seedling into a 12 inch pot on 5/10; first ripe tomato 6/28. Grew like crazy 2ft tall and 2-3 ft wide. It needed more support than I expected. Lots of tomatoes - more orange than yellow, thin skinned, up to 1.5 inches in diameter. Nice flavor, balanced towards the mildly tart side. No issues with pests or disease despite the humidity. This is a keeper.

Never Sprouted 0 people found this helpfulI specifically looked for this type of tomato plant to grow on my patio. I was excited to find a small plant that was touted to be a big producer. Sadly, none of the seeds in my pack sprouted. I planted flower seeds near these tomatoes, and they sprouted just fine. I would not recommend these.

Best producer for us 0 people found this helpfulPlanted both the red and yellow varieties in very large pots (24" dia) and grew side by side. Normally tomatoes do not make it through the Texas heat of August and September but both varieties produced from May through summer (although much slower to set when temp hits 90). The red produced as expected but the yellow has overflowed. 20-30 tomatoes at a minimum of every other day. Now that weather has moderated for Fall, the production has exploded. We are picking a quart of yellow tomatoes every 2 days from 3 bushes. We put low cages in pots in June to direct their growth and the plants have filled and overflowed the cages at this point. There are hundreds of green tomatoes on each bush and lots of blossoms too. We have another month of likely growing weather so they should keep producing to mid November. This has been an outstanding variety for us and we will plant again.

Reliable heat tolerant tomato plant 0 people found this helpfulI bought these seeds to try yellow tomatoes for the first time. I planted this in a small space, thinking that the plant would be pretty small. Maybe I have a special green thumb, because this plant grew pretty big. Mine was about 3 feet tall and just as wide. I actually had to trim some of the plant to control the growth and stake it pretty well. This plant produced a ton of tomatoes. We had a very hot, humid, and dry July, and while some of my other tomato dwarf plants struggled, the patio choice yellow showed no signs of stress. The taste was good, a little different from red tomatoes. I used mostly for salads. I would grow again, in a 5 gallon container.

Bland taste 0 people found this helpfulThese yellow cherry tomatoes are pretty to look at, but they have a bland taste. This is the 2nd year I have planted them. There are other varieties that taste much better.

Apocalypse Tomato 0 people found this helpfulI've grown this for four years now and I call it the Apocalypse tomato. Two years ago it volunteered in a crack of cement in my backyard. It got about three hours of sun a day and still managed to produce tomatoes. The mother plant (started indoors, growing in real soil, receiving proper sunlight, nutrition, pruning etc.) yielded over 400 tomatoes (9+ pounds) before I yanked it out to make way for the winter garden. It's not the sweetest cherry tomato, but it definitely has flavour. I also wouldn't classify it as a dwarf variety as they've always grown at least 3 feet tall in my experience. I saved seeds last year for the first time and am interested to see how the next generation turns out.

Grows so well! 0 people found this helpfulFirst off, I love this little plant. I planted one single seed this year in late December, it popped up three days later and now a couple months later I have this great compact tomato plant (completely indoors) and this little thing has put out so many blossoms AND set fruit despite having no pollinators indoors. I'm so excited to have clusters of yellow tomatoes before spring even finishes getting here!

Needs a cage-found out too late to save my plants 0 people found this helpfulMy plants are more then twice the expected height. Most of them flopped over abruptly today and snapped the center stem. I few have bent but intact stems. I ordered patio choice seeds because I wanted small plants that would not need support to grow in my sun room. If I had used a larger planter and support cages Patio Choice could have produced a lot of tomatoes. Each plant has at least 30 flowers. I did not get what I paid for.

Wow! 0 people found this helpfulWe've tried several kinds of tomatoes and this one is by FAR the winner! These are the only ones we're going to grow next year! I planted two of these in a giant pot with some basil plants and they both got really big (if their roots have room, then I suggest using a cage! I ended up rigging some support). It's been NON-STOP tomatoes for months now (first day of fall and I just harvested another 20). There are at least 50 more on the plants now, just ripening. No pests. No disease. I especially love that it's not "one and done", but just keeps going and going! The tomatoes are delicious and the neighbors have already asked if I'll be starting more seeds next year, which of course, I will!

Best Cherry tomato I have ever grown 1 people found this helpfulPlanted several of the "Patio Choice" two years in a row. Since then, I have recommended it to every tomato grower I know. This plant produced great tomatoes all the way through September here in Florida with absolutely no pest or disease problems. The tomatoes are thin skinned and have a great flavor.

High Yield, Tasty Fruit 0 people found this helpfulI grew these for the first time in 2018. These germinated very well, stayed relatively compact, and produced a TON. In fact, they kept producing well into fall. I grew them in smallish containers with just a little bit of fertilizer. I can’t believe how much these tiny plants produced! The flavor was quite good, too. Really nice balance between sweet and tart. Defintely growing again for 2019!

SOUNDS GOOD! 0 people found this helpfulI'll try this. There is also an heirloom yellow mini-currant tomato which I grow, but it is indeterminate and sprawls all over. It is not resistant to viruses eith
