‘Taxi’ Yellow Tomato, organic seeds (Solanum lycopersicum) Taxi Yellow is a bright yellow tomato suited to short-season gardens. Gaia describes a compact plant approximately 2 feet tall and 2 feet wide that can produce heavily for three to four weeks. M-class fruit has a mild, low-acid flavour and suits lunch boxes, salads, sandwiches, and salsa.
