Number of seeds

The Taxi tomato is a standard yellow-fruited variety, prized in gardens with short growing seasons for its earliness and consistent quality. With its round, bright yellow fruit, it adds a touch of brightness to flowerbeds and plates alike, while remaining a compact plant, easy to integrate into a well-planned vegetable garden.

In the garden, Taxi forms a rather compact, leafy plant, well-suited to small spaces and sustainable cultivation methods. Its fruits ripen early in the season, making it a valuable ally in cooler climates where summer is short. In a vibrant and diverse garden, it integrates naturally among companion flowers and aromatic herbs, contributing to a nourishing space in harmony with the cycle of the seasons.

  • Growing climate: Warm season
  • Sowing difficulty level: Easy
  • Care required: Regular
  • Growth: Summer growth

Note: Prefers sunny summers and well-warmed soil, sensitive to frost like all tomatoes.

Taxi tomatoes, with their beautiful yellow color and sweet flesh, are particularly well-suited to fresh salads, where they bring a less acidic note and an interesting color contrast with red tomatoes. They can be sliced ​​for sandwiches and burgers, or cut into wedges for pasta and grain salads.

Their yellow color, often less prone to staining, also makes them a good base for light sauces, mild coulis, or salsas where a more delicate tomato flavor is desired. They can be preserved similarly to other tomatoes: canned, as a coulis, or frozen after cooking.
