Tomato ‘Citrina’

Tomato ‘Citrina’ is a distinctive, lemon-shaped variety that stands out with its bright yellow colour, firm flesh, and smooth skin. These small, oval fruits resemble miniature lemons and have a mild, slightly tangy flavour that’s ideal for preserving, drying, or fresh snacking. A determinate (bush-type) variety, ‘Citrina’ is compact and well-suited to container growing, small spaces, and allotments. Its uniform fruits and ornamental appeal make it both practical and eye-catching.
