Ordinary World

Note: The following description was provided by Google AI. "Ordinary World" is a visually striking, open-pollinated tomato variety bred by American breeder Bill Yoder of Georgia. Named after the iconic 1993 hit song by Duran Duran, it is a headline member of Yoder's signature "Duran Duran collection". Despite its humble name, the fruit's dramatic colors and complex flavors make it an extraordinary addition to home gardens. • Fruit Type & Size: Medium-sized saladette to small beefsteak slicer, typically weighing between 3 to 10 ounces (85–400 grams). • Appearance: Features an intricate, multi-toned striped skin. The base color ripens to a soft rose-pink or dusky mahogany-red with golden-bronze undertones. Direct sunlight and cold nights activate heavy splashes of deep blue and dark purple anthocyanin (antho) across its shoulders. • Flavor Profile: A bold, comforting, and deeply complex "black tomato" flavor. It balances an earthy, smoky sweetness with a sharp, fruity tang. • Growth Habit: Indeterminate vining plants that feature regular leaf foliage. They are vigorous growers, often climbing between 5 to 6.5 feet (1.5–2+ meters), and require sturdy staking, caging, or trellising to manage heavy fruit clusters. • Maturity Time: Early-to-mid season variety, ripening roughly 70 to 80 days after transplanting. • Yield: An exceptionally high-yielding, continuous cropper that sets heavy fruit clusters straight through into autumn until the first frost hits.
