Variety characteristics:

• 853 Spotlight Tomato is a mini dwarf tomato variety from Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms, growing only about 12-20 in, or 30-50 cm, tall. Despite its compact size, plants are highly productive and set large round cherry tomatoes weighing about 30-50 g each. Fruits ripen to a pale amber-green color with darker shading near the neck, while the interior flesh is an attractive lemon-green. The fruits have good shelf life and a balanced, rich tomato flavor, making this variety excellent for containers, patios, small gardens, fresh snacking, salads, and specialty tomato collections. Spotlight is a great choice for growers who want a compact plant with impressive yield and unusual fruit color.
