Gold Medallion
Sunlit and velvety, Gold Medallion oxheart tomatoes ripen to a rich golden-orange glow that feels almost luminous against the foliage. Their flesh is notably meaty and tender with a low-seed, custard-like texture, delivering a sweet, mellow flavor that shines when showcased. Grow Gold Medallion for bold slices and golden-hued sauces, or for spoonable, vibrant preserves that capture the fruit’s warm, honeyed character.

Sowing Tips
Soil Temperature
Direct sow or transplant when soil at planting depth holds 60°F for reliable germination and early growth.
Expert Note
For oxheart types, transplant only when nighttime temperatures are reliably warm (soil ~60°F+), and keep a steady moisture level to prevent blossom-end rot and cracking.
