My daughter gave me an heirloom tomatoe called Garden Peach that she picked up at our farmer's market. They told her it has a peach fuzz and will do well in our area. Well, I wasn't too keen on it but said "Thank you" very politely. :)

Has anyone grown this? What does it taste like?

I have not grown them. They are supposed to be small, thin walled, not very meaty, and not tart, actually kind of bland, but they are not supposed to split much. I'm sure some people love them, but it does not sound like one I would be interested in.

I used to grow it, years ago. It's very mild. Looks pretty though. If you have a very strange friend/relative who doesn't like fresh tomatoes (they exist, one of my close friends is a tomato-hater, which just goes to show you that all sorts of people can get along if they try :lol: ), Garden Peach can help convince them that tomatoes aren't so bad after all.

Not overwhelmingly prolific as I recall. But produced right up until frost.
