Adorable bicolor heart tomatoes with golden-yellow bodies and a vivid rose-pink blush that starts at the blossom end and swirls deep into the flesh. Fruits vary from classic heart shapes to broad-shouldered ovals, typically 4–10 oz, with smooth, glossy skin and a cheerful coloring that makes every cluster look like edible sunshine.
Potato-leaf plants are extraordinarily productive—trusses hang heavy all season long—and they positively thrive when kept slightly on the dry side, developing richer, more concentrated flavor. (Just don’t let them go from drought to deluge; sudden heavy rain can cause splitting.)
Sweet, bright, and well-balanced with a juicy texture. A prolific little charmer that brings both beauty and bounty to the garden.
HISTORY: Originated as a bee cross between 'Brandywine' and 'Tad' in Craig LeHoullier's Raliegh, NC garden in 1993. Selection work led to the naming and release of the first variety 'Lucky Cross', in 2001. The same cross produced 'Little Lucky' and 'Little Lucky Heart' which was found by a gardener in Germany and remained stable.
Sold as one plant in a 3.5" pot.
