I found an info page on Sweet Ozark Orange Tomato on Dave’s Garden
Website, which I’ve attached to this post, so you can have a look at
this beauty and it’s breeding.
The Breeder wrote:-
I intentionally crossed German Red Strawberry with Dr. Wyche’s Yellow
in 2009. The resulting F1 generation hybrids in 2010 were large red
semi-heart tomatoes with only fair flavor. This large orange beefsteak
strain with excellent flavor appeared in only one plant among many wild
variations the following generation, in 2011. I have grown this new
open-pollinated variety for three seasons now, and I believe it is
stable. The tomatoes are large, sweet, bright orange when ripe, and
meaty. The plants have thick regular-leaf foliage and are very
productive. I believe this is a much-improved descendant of Dr. Wyche’s
Yellow, benefiting from the addition of German Red Strawberry genes
which show up in the characteristics of excellent flavor and meatiness
with little pulp.
