Variety characteristics:

• 587 Lucfichoise is an exceptionally productive multiflora tomato named in memory of Belgian seed collector Luc Fichot. Vigorous indeterminate plants grow approximately 5 to 6 feet tall and develop spectacular fan-shaped, highly branched flower trusses capable of carrying dozens of fruits. The small oval, teardrop, and pear-shaped tomatoes weigh up to approximately 1.4 oz in this seed lot. Fruits ripen to a brilliant golden yellow-orange, decorated with rosy pink, raspberry-red, and coral striping that becomes more pronounced at full maturity. Inside, the tender, juicy yellow-orange flesh may display delicate pink marbling. The flavor is sweet, fruity, aromatic, and exceptionally enjoyable for fresh eating. Plants begin producing around midseason and continue flowering and setting fruit until frost, making this an outstanding choice for snacking, salads, appetizers, and colorful tomato platters. Large trusses require strong, carefully placed support.
