The Dwarf Champion Tomato, introduced in the 1889 Maule’s Seed Annual, is a mid-season, nineteenth-century slicing tomato variety that has been praised for its good flavour and texture. It’s notable for its compact growth, making it suitable for smaller gardens. The variety produces ample amounts of three to eight-ounce, pink-colored fruits with a slightly tangy but mild and sweet flavour.
It was one of the first tree-type tomato varieties, selected from a cross between an unknown variety and ‘Tomato de Laye’. Dwarf Champion is known for its upright growth and ability to be planted closer together, producing double the quantity of early fruit per acre compared to other varieties.
