\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> A highly contested name covering several different strains. The heirloom swap version produces sweet, deep pink oblate tomatoes on a regular leaf plant, while commercial seed packets often produce a completely different compact, carrot-leaf plant with mixed-to-negative flavor reviews.

Grew Marmalade from our girl Galya (Esme) in the greenhouse. It got up to 5 feet (1.5 m) tall. Sprawling bush, vigorous foliage, deep pink-red fruits, oblate, weighing up to 3.5-7 oz (100-200 g). Very tasty.<\/p>\n

I’d give it a 4 out of 5. The heat caused some blossom drop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Is the taste sweet?
\nWould it be good for canning\/pickling?

It’s tasty, slightly sweet. Didn’t pickle them, we just ate them fresh in salads.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Found another photo of the bush, but we had already eaten the red ones, or maybe they just hadn’t ripened yet \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2640\ufe0f \ud83c\udfa9<\/p>\n

Thanks for the photos and info! I’ll plant a couple this year and see how it goes… people hyped this variety up for me SO much, I basically have to plant it now \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

My Marmalade is from the “Ural Gardener” brand. It’s short, early, and has carrot leaves! \ud83d\ude33<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Here is what it looks like \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2640\ufe0f. I already picked the first 7 red tomatoes off of it, I have a photo of the fruit in my album.<\/p>\n

My seeds were also from “Ural Gardener.” I highly suspect this variety used to be called “Carrot” (Morkovnyi) because of the foliage, and they just renamed it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nope, it’s not the same. I’m actually growing the old Carrot variety right now too. Carrot is taller, and the tomatoes are smaller and round. Marmalade is very oblate, significantly larger, and tastes totally different.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I also had Marmalade from Ural Gardener with the carrot leaves. Found absolutely zero promised “marmalade” sweetness in them. They just grew into small, sour little tomatoes.<\/p>\n

I didn’t like this variety either. It got hit by late blight almost immediately, and they weren’t tasty at all.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

My Marmalade sprouted with potato leaves! What is the real one actually supposed to look like?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
