See Illustration Below 
A new orange-yellow tomato which compares favorably with the 
best of the standard red varieties in shape, smoothness, quality and 
solidity. 
Jubilee is entirely different from any yellow or orange tomato 
ever grown. Fruits are bright orange-yellow, globular, weigh about 6 
ozs., smooth, and quite free from cracking. The interior is modern, 
thick-walled, with few seeds. The flavor is somewhat mild but not 
flat. Makes delicious juice of unusual and attractive color. Fruits of 
Jubilee are usually ready in about 72 days after plants are set. out in 
the garden. 
The plants are short-stemmed, but not determinate, stiff, compact, 
and cover the fruit well. They also hold their foliage well and bear 
over a long season. The fruit color develops evenly and uniformly.
