Yellow Pear Cherry Tomato produces an abundance of small, golden fruit on indeterminate vines that reach 6 feet tall, ready to harvest in just 75 days. These aren't ordinary cherry tomatoes; the pear-shaped fruits have a mild, juicy character that works equally well fresh in salads, popped as hors d'oeuvres, or cooked down into sauce. Plant in full sun with moderate water and well-draining soil (pH 6.0-6.8), spacing plants 24 inches apart, and you'll have a prolific producer all season long.

Golden pear-shaped fruits arrive in abundance, offering a mild, juicy flavor that's equally at home on a salad plate or in the kitchen. The indeterminate growth habit means continuous production throughout the season, and the compact fruit size makes them ideal for snacking straight off the vine or arranging on an appetizer platter. At 75 days to harvest, you'll be picking within roughly 2.5 months of transplanting.
These small golden tomatoes excel in fresh applications where their mild flavor and juicy texture shine. Slip them whole into salads, halve them for garnishes, or string them together as edible table decorations. They're equally suited to cooking, where their abundant yield makes them practical for sauces, salsas, or any preparation that benefits from volume. The fruit size and shape make them especially fun for entertaining, creating whimsical presentations that look as good as they taste.

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. Maintain soil temperature between 68-82°F for reliable germination. Transplant outdoors after the last frost danger has passed and soil has warmed.
Transplant seedlings outdoors after your last frost date when soil is warm and plants have been hardened off by gradual exposure to outdoor conditions. Space plants 24 inches apart with 36 inches between rows.
Harvest fruits when they turn fully golden yellow, typically 75 days after transplanting. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure. Pick regularly to encourage continued production throughout the season. The pear shape makes them easy to identify at peak ripeness.
As an indeterminate variety, Yellow Pear will benefit from pruning suckers (shoots that grow between the main stem and branches) to direct energy toward fruit production and improve air circulation. Remove lower leaves as the plant grows to prevent soil splash and reduce disease pressure.
