Hillbilly, from West Virginia, ripens yellow‑orange with red marbling and tastes as mellow and sweet as it looks. Fruits regularly hit 1–2 pounds with few seeds and low acid—ideal for colorful slices and fresh salsa. Vines are vigorous; cage well. Harvest when the bottom blushes red. For a tomato that looks like a sunrise and tastes like summer, Hillbilly delivers.

How to Grow

Start seed indoors 5-7 weeks before last frost. Provide plants with plenty of light to avoid tall, spindly tomato transplants. A sunny south-facing window or grow lights will be sufficient. A heat mat helps to speed up the germination process. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-85 degrees. A few weeks before transplanting time, harden off plants by exposing them to an increasing number of hours outdoors each day. Delay transplanting until your soil has thoroughly warmed up in the spring; usually about 2 weeks after the your average last frost date. Set transplants in the ground and cover stem so that only 2-3 sets true leaves are exposed, resulting in a stronger root system.
