Description

Amber Keyes belongs to the multiflora type, i.e. it forms vast numbers of flowers on a panicle, which later grow into amber-colored, greenish-yellow, pear-shaped or oval fruits. Image and text source: Eifeltomate.de

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

As this variety is very vigorous when grown under shelter (GWH), it is advisable to provide it with sufficient space from the outset so that it can grow in an airy environment. It manages 2-3 shoots very well and grows over 200 cm. Outdoors, I would assume a roof or similar, as it produces a lot of foliage and this should not remain wet for too long. The plant height will be less under these cooler conditions. Picture and text source: Eifeltomate.de
