Overview
Early Wonder was introduced by Burgess Seed and Plant Co. in 1950 from seed a California gardener sent in 1947, and Burgess claimed it as distinct from Victor and Bounty. It is an extremely early determinate tomato with round, dark pink fruit of about 6 ounces, said to be earlier, more vigorous and more productive than Victor with better foliage cover and larger fruit. The bush habit needs only a short cage. A good pick for the first tomatoes of the year.
