Audrey's Love

Dwarf Audrey’s Love is a handsome paste-type dwarf from the Dwarf Tomato Project, carrying elongated mahogany fruits striped in green. Rugose, regular-leaf plants grow about 2–3 feet tall yet yield heavily when given a stout cage or stake. Fruits average 2–4 ounces, meaty and juicy with mild, well-balanced flavor—excellent for sauce, roasting, and salads. Midseason maturity and compact habit make it ideal for containers and small beds. The variety traces to a Kiwi F1 cross by Sherry Long, and was named by Robin Bort in honor of her mother. Fruits shine in both fresh salads and slow‑simmered sauces where their natural balance comes forward. Plants respond well to consistent moisture and mulching, which helps reduce blossom‑end stress and keeps fruit quality high. Give sturdy support and prune lightly to maintain airflow and make harvest easier as clusters build.
