(Solanum lycopersicum)
75 days. Open polinated Heirloom. Indeterm.
Our most requested cherry tomato last year, and for good reason. Beautiful, perfectly round, purple/brown/red fruits are borne in great abundance on long trusses. The flavor is rich and sweet and juicey. The vines are vigorous and productive and long lived. Our most disease resistant open polinated cherry tomato, Black Cherry produces early and keeps going until frost. Crack resistant, too. Just an awesome tomato, and one we will never be without in our garden.
Germinated at 95% on 12/20/11.
