Overview
Jaune Flamme is a French heirloom with deep orange fruit of two to three ounces, roughly apricot sized and shaped, with thin skin and a fruity, sweet-tart flavor. Fruit comes in abundant clusters on vigorous indeterminate vines that need a stake or cage. Pick as soon as the color is full so rain does not split the thin skins; the vines keep bearing from early summer to frost.
