Description
The Harmony family originated from a cross made by Patrina Nuske Small between two of our Dwarf Tomato Project releases, Dwarf Blazing Beauty and Dwarf Sweet Sue. Dwarf CC McGee was selected and named by Susan Oliverson. The potato leaf dwarf plants produce good yields of medium-sized (4-8 oz) ivory colored oblate tomatoes with elements of both sweet and tart in the full, delicious flavor; it is a relatively late bearing variety. Along with key contributor Susan Oliverson, others involved in the development of this variety are Craig LeHoullier, Dee Sackett and Lee Newman, with Bill Minkey producing the seed of the finished selection.
