Overview
Fantome du Laos is a pale tomato whose 3 to 4 inch flattened fruits are lobed or ribbed and ripen to a ghostly cream shade, barely touched with yellow, hence the name. The plants are indeterminate and need a stake or cage, and the first ripe fruit comes about 80 days after transplanting. Its unusual color makes it a talking point on a plate of mixed sliced tomatoes.
