Yes, Rose Beauty is a YELLOW tomato! The name comes from John Rose of Richmond,KY. It was grown by his family on Happy Top Mountain on th...Read Moree Estlii/Jackson Co. line in KY, in the late 1920's and early 1930's.

It is a large lemon yellow beefsteak with a wonderful mild flavor.Some yellows are bland tasting and mealy in texture,but this one is quite zippy when bitten into.

Some fruits show faint pink streaks in the blossom end,and others show no pink at all.

For a true heirloom that has never been 'monkeyed with' by the seed companies,this one's a keeper!
