  1. AAS Display Garden- River Valley Master Gardeners – 08/16/2018

    Patio Choice Yellow produced early and set fruit through the heat of the summer in Zone 6a. With normal care, despite the heat and drought, one of our plants produced almost 600 of these tasty cherry tomatoes. The vines are short, ours were only 12 inches tall.
