Tomato, Apollo's Chariot

Back with another brand new, 2026 release from Wild Boar Farms: Apollo's Chariot.  Like all varieties we've grown from WBF, you can expect great production, stunning fruits and delicious flavor! 

Elongated, semi-pointed oval shaped tomatoes have a mesmerizing gradient of colors, burnt mahogany at the base melting into fiery streaks of burnt orange and golden amber, almost looking like molten lava running down it’s exceptionally smooth, glossy skin. Okay, that was a mouthful but they're stunning.  

They're also delicious.  And you can use them in a multitude of ways!  Great for fresh eating but if you're a canner, you'll want to use these for sauce, salsa, soup, etc.  The interior is pink and semi-meaty and the flavor is outstanding, with a balance of rich, sweet and acid.  

This variety will hang exceptionally long ripe on the vine without compromising the flavor or texture.  Excellent post-harvest storage ability.  Fruits can stay delicious for weeks stored at room temperature.  Very good production in our climate. 

Favorite Plant Color Combos: 

• Apollo's Chariot + Purple Basil
