Both of my bushes grew outdoors in open ground, pruned to 2 stems. They require really strong staking and support because they set every single truss right up until the end of the season without dropping any blossoms. The trusses can hold up to 8-10 fruits. They are beautiful yellow plums weighing up to 5.3 oz (150 g) with excellent flavor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2022_10\/324720656_.jpg.7776c01e1327e618abe45f16df2e266d.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2022_10\/1077998638_.thumb.jpg.6a56314c6551351bae4dfd8b190be13d.jpg\" alt=\"Large cluster of yellow Zoloto Kolchaka plum tomatoes\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2022_10\/DSCN1170.JPG.62986e9c5cdcfc4eef188bedce88c9c3.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2022_10\/DSCN1170.thumb.JPG.c554820bbcfc3386196876d6839b0ac5.JPG\" alt=\"Yellow plum tomato on a scale showing 113 grams\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"editor-note\" style=\"background: #eef7ff; padding: 15px; border-left: 4px solid #2196F3; margin-top: 15px; font-size: 1.2em;\"><strong>\ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83c\udf3e Editor&#8217;s Note: The Legend of Kolchak&#8217;s Gold<\/strong><br \/>\nHeirloom tomato collectors love a good backstory, and this variety has one of the best! <em>Zoloto Kolchaka<\/em> literally translates to <strong>Kolchak&#8217;s Gold<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Admiral Alexander Kolchak was a polar explorer and a prominent leader of the White movement during the Russian Civil War.
