Growing Information
Growing Chef's™ Choice Orange Hybrid Slicing T Tomato
Chef's™ Choice Orange Hybrid Tomato Seeds deliver glowing orange, beefsteak-size fruits with the rich, old-timey flavor gardeners love. Bred from the heirloom Amana Orange to keep its superb color and taste, this hybrid adds welcome earliness, uniformity, and disease resistance so you can count on plentiful, high-quality slicers. The neon orange hue holds beautifully in salads and also keeps its brightness when cooked, making it a favorite for chefs and home cooks alike.
Plants mature in about 75 days and set a prolific crop of round to slightly flattened fruits averaging 9–12 ounces with firm, meaty texture for clean slices. Vines are vigorous and indeterminate with excellent crack resistance, producing reliably in full sun through the heat of summer. Consistent size, color, and flavor make this a standout for sandwiches, fresh plates, and vibrant sauces.
A 2014 AAS Winner, Chef's™ Choice Orange Hybrid balances heirloom-style flavor with modern performance, offering heavy yields, superb eating quality, and striking color that brightens every dish.

All my Chef Choice tomatoes this year did not grow as expected. The Yellow, Black, and Orange all grew as random red tomatoes.

This seed for 2026 has had maybe 15% germination. Followed same practice as my other tomato seeds which are growing just fine.
Seeds' N Such used to provide a great product - but not sure this is the source I will use another year.

Disease resistant, lots of tomatoes per plant. Thicker meatier tomato. Good for thicker sauces and colorful dishes. One of my favorite tomatoes to grow

These orange wonders are crack resistant, meaty and thin-skinned. They are large and great for sandwiches, and canning. They germinate easily and got great reviews from my family.
