Overview

Northern Exposure is an early determinate tomato that yields red fruit of about 8 ounces, ripening around 67 days from transplant. It is the same variety that Burpee sells on retail seed racks under the name Early Harvest Hybrid, so do not buy both expecting two different tomatoes. The bushy habit needs only a cage, and the early ripening makes it a good fit for cooler regions or gardeners who want slicers before midsummer.
