Sunrise Bumblebee
Sunrise Bumblebee is a captivating legacy variety from Artisan Seeds, crafted by the renowned breeder Fred Hempel. This true-breeding cherry tomato showcases a delightful yellow color with pink marbling and yellow stripes, making it as visually appealing as it is flavorful.
Growth Characteristics This variety boasts indeterminate vines that perform well in both container settings and when planted directly in the ground. Sunrise Bumblebee is known for its good productivity but requires staking for optimal growth and maximum production.
Fruit Description Sunrise Bumblebee produces yellow cherry tomatoes that are adorned with pink marbling and yellow stripes. Early in the growing season, the fruits may not show much marbling when ripe, but as the season progresses, the marbling becomes more pronounced at peak ripeness.
Flavor Profile The flavor of Sunrise Bumblebee is described as bright, sweet, and tropical. This variety offers a unique taste experience, with flavors that vary through different stages of ripening. Growers are encouraged to experiment with harvesting at various stages, especially noting how the flavors evolve from those fruits still showing green streaks on their shoulders.
Culinary Uses Sunrise Bumblebee tomatoes are perfect for adding a splash of color and a tropical flavor twist to salads, fresh salsas, or as a vibrant garnish in culinary presentations. Their distinctive appearance and taste make them a favorite among chefs and home cooks alike.
Agricultural Attributes The vines of Sunrise Bumblebee require staking to manage their vigorous growth and ensure ease of harvesting. This support not only facilitates better fruit production but also helps in maintaining plant health by improving air circulation around the fruits, reducing the risk of disease.
